Biomolecular motors are proteins able of converting chemical energy into mechanical motion and force. Because of their dimension, the many small parts that make up molecular motors must operate at energies only a few times greater than those of the thermal baths. The description of molecular motors must be stochastic in nature. Their actions are often described in terms of Brownian Ratchets mechanisms. In order to describe the principles used in their movement, we need to use the tools that theoretical physics give us. In this book we centralize on the some physical mechanisms of molecular motors. 410 0$aSpringer series in biophysics ;$vVolume 21. 606 $aBrownian motors 606 $aMolecular machinery 606 $aBiophysics 615 0$aBrownian motors. 615 0$aMolecular machinery. 615 0$aBiophysics. 676 $a621.381 700 $aForne?s$b Jose?
