Skeletal muscle features
• Muscle surpasses artificial actuators only in
the fuel delivery
• Linear actuation
• Adapted for intermittent duty and stiffness
(compliance) control
• Versatile force control: recruitment +
stiffness modulation (w/o feedback)

Molecular Springs & Ratchets
• Spasmoneme of the Vorticella
• Acrosome
• Actin polymerization
Mahdevan, L : Science, 288: 95, 2000.
Spasmoneme of the Vorticella
Actin Spring
• Acrosome needs to
penetrate egg jelly.
• Spring is super-coiledheld twisted by scruin.
• Ca++ Ds scruin
Supramolecular ratchets
• Pawl and ratchet
analogy of actin
polymerization
• How controlled? In
quiescence, profilin is
the shut-off switch.
Stimulus such as pH D
in presence of actin
monomers can start.
• Listeria rides this bus

How does muscle fatigue?
• Test of a ‘skinned’ muscle fiber from EDL
of rat.
• Can activate by direct stimulation of any
step in the cascade.

F1 ATPase: A rotary motor
• Can either make or break ATP, hence is
reversible
• Torque of 40 pN-nM; work in 1/3 rev. is 80
pn-nM (40 * 2/3) equivalent to free energy
from ATP hydrolysis
• Can see rotation by attaching an actin
filament

• When L>> x the chain has many bends and
is always crumpled in solution – the FJC
model applies, with each link approximated
as 2 x and perfectly flexible joints.
• To count all possible curved states in a
smooth-bending rod in solution- it’s a
WLC- supercoiling is possible.
