Bidirectional transport on dynamic networks

Résumé

Intracellular transport along microtubules is bidirectional because of the involvement of molecular motors which move in both directions of the filament. Models for this type of transport on static networks turn out to be unrealistically inefficient due to jam formation. In this letter, we propose that the dynamics of the network is a crucial ingredient to understanding how nature makes bidirectional transport efficient.
