Self-Organized Density Patterns of Molecular Motors in Arrays of Cytoskeletal Filaments

The stationary states of systems with many molecular motors are studied theoretically for uniaxial and centered (asterlike) arrangements of cytoskeletal filaments using Monte Carlo simulations and a two-state model. Mutual exclusion of motors from binding sites of the filaments is taken into account...
