Propagation of dromions in microtubulin system under the influence of viscosity

Abstract

Abstract

Microtubules (MTs) are the very important for cellular organization and information processing. MTs serve as structural components within cells and are involved in many cellular process including mitosis, cytokinesis and vesicular transport. The energy transfer along the protofilaments of microtubules can be understood by the underlying nonlinear excitations which explain their dynamics. We employ symbolic computation to solve the associated dynamical equation and exhibit the dromion-like solution in microtubules.
