With the advantages of their size, high chemo-mechanical transduction efficiency (ATPase), and robust movement in vitro it is intriguing to integrate these nano-motors with artificial machines for micro-scale actuations. Many studies proposed and implemented this concept to design different kinds of bio-sensors or other micro-/ nano-scale devices recently. However, the detailed mechanistic behavior has not been proposed and discussed. We studied the functionality of kinesin and microtubule and proposed a simplified model of the interaction between microtubules and micro-machined structures. In the result of this thesis, in order to have high efficiency of microtubule guiding in vitro, the density of kinesins coated on the bottom surface in the microfluidic channel influences the behavior of guided microtubule movement. In case of microtubule collision with channel sidewall, the density of kinesins coated on the surface nearby the sidewall should be as higher as possible to make microtubule easy to be recaptured by next functional kinesin and then keep guided by the wall. On the other hand, to control the microtubule movement by adding electric field, the guiding efficiency is relatively high in lower density of kinesins coated on the plane surface. These results of modeling microtubule movement can become a guideline for future study of microtubule guiding technology in microfluidic channel.口試委員審定書 i謝 ii文摘要 iiibstract ivable of Contents viable of Figures ixist of Tables xvhapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Motivation 1.2 Research Background 3.2.1 Introduction of Motor Protein & Cytoskeleton: Kinesin and Microtubule 3.2.2 Motor Proteins Based Nanotechnology System 4.3 Objective 6.4 Thesis Outline 7hapter 2 Review of Related Work 8.1 Nanomechanics of Microtubules 8.2 Microtubule Guidance 13.3 Experimental Data of Microtubule Movement 16.4 Simulation of Microtubule Movement 20.5 Summary 23hapter 3 Simulation of Microtubule Movement 24.1 Introduction 24.2 Bending Energy in Microtubule Movement for Statistical Models 25.3 Probability of Bending Scenario by Thermal Fluctuation on Free Microtubule Tip 26.4 Simulation of Microtubules Collision with Sidewall 31.5 Summary 40hapter 4 Simulation of Microtubule Movement Controlled by Electric Field 42.1 Introduction 42.2 Statistical Model of Electric-Field Controlled Microtubule Movement 43.3 Microtubule Moving Direction in Electric Field 53.4 Summary 60hapter 5 Conclusions and Future Work 62.1 Summary and Contributions 62.2 Future Work 65eferences 67者簡歷 703046321 bytesapplication/pdfen-US蛋白質馬達細胞骨架驅動蛋白微管電腦模擬統計力學蒙地?卡羅統計模擬方法Motor ProteinCytoskeletonKinesinMicrotubuleComputer SimulationStatistical MechanicsMonte Carlo Simulationthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/187815/1/ntu-98-R96521608-1.pdf
