Kinetics of actin-myosin binding. ATP-ase activity and sol-gel dissipative structures.
The simple kinetic model of actin-myosin binding-dissociation process including ATP-ase activity is considered. We demonstrated how one may easily include cooperativity in such a model by using effectivity factors introduced in our previous papers. A possibility of further simplifying the model through quasi-stationary approximation for some variables is considered. Sol-gel dissipative structures and possible biological implications of such structures are discussed.
