Two-Species Active Transport along Cylindrical Biofilaments is Limited by Emergent Topological Hindrance
Active motion of molecules along filamentous structures is a crucial feature of cell biology and is often modeled with the paradigmatic asymmetric simple exclusion process. Motivated by recent experimental studies that have addressed the stepping behavior of kinesins on microtubules, we investigate...
