Statistics of reversible bond dynamics observed in force-clamp spectroscopy

AbstractWe present a detailed analysis of two-state trajectories obtained in force-clamp spectroscopy (FCS) on reversibly bonded systems. FCS offers the unique possibility to vary the equilibrium constant in two-state kinetics, for instance the unfolding and refolding of biomolecules, over a huge range due to the force dependence of the respective rates. We discuss two different kinds of counting statistics, the event-counting usually employed in the statistical analysis of two-state kinetics and additionally a so-called cycle-counting. While in the former case all transitions are counted cycle-counting means that we focus on one type of transitions. This might be advantageous in particular if the equilibrium constant is much larger or much smaller than unity because in these situations the temporal resolution might not allow for an event-counting analysis. We show that for complex systems exhibiting dynamic disorder not only the detection of deviations from Markovian behavior is possible but also the determination of the average life-time of the disorder should be feasible in favorable cases.
