Protein Localization with Flexible DNA or RNA

Figure 2

Typical trajectory of target search.

Model cell of width in simulation units, with one target site located in center of diameter 1. A) Trajectory of a randomly released protein until the target is reached. B) As in A) but with possibility to bind to intermediate binding sites (IBS) with probability and to release from this site with low . When bound to the IBS the protein moves stochastically with while sampling the localized distribution (colored trajectory).
