Fractional Gaussian Noise, Fractional Gaussian Noise, Subdiffusion and Stochastic and Stochastic Subdiffusion Networks in Biophysics Networks in Biophysics Samuel Kou Department of Statistics Harvard University Single-Molecule Experiments
Single-Molecule Experiments
Statistics & probability experienced fundamental
change in the past 20 years
Biophysics & chemistry also witnessed dramatic
progress: single-molecule experiments
Using nanotechnology, scientists can study
biological processes on a single-molecule basis (eg. enzymatic kinetics, protein/DNA dynamics)
“Seeing images of single atoms is a religious experience”
- -- Richard Feynman
New Aspects for Scientific Discovery
Can measure molecular properties
individually, instead of inferring from population statistics
If the reaction/kinetic time is slow, ensemble
experiments become almost impossible due to the difficulty of synchronization
Single-molecule trajectory provides detailed
dynamic information
Understanding the dynamics of individual is
essential to unlock their biofunctions
Statistical & Probabilistic Challenges Statistical & Probabilistic Challenges
Require new stochastic modeling
Subdiffusion Enzymatic reaction
Data are noisier, and efficient inference
methodology is needed
Brownian diffusion
Since Einstein's 1905 paper, the theory of Brownian
diffusion has revolutionized not only natural sciences but also social sciences.
Brownian motion described by Langevin equation
where F(t) is white noise process satisfying by fluctuation-dissipation theorem.
Solution: Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process v(t) Gaussian Displacement (location)

Subdiffusion
Brownian diffusion, however, cannot explain so
called subdiffusion:
Distance fluctuation within a single protein
molecule (Yang et al. 2003, Science; Min et al. 2005, Physical
Review Letters).
Need tools beyond Langevin equation and BM.

Single-molecule fluorescence experiment on protein complex

Fre contains two substructures:
a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and a tyrosine (Tyr).
Fluorescence lifetime of FAD varies
due to distance fluctuation

For displacement H > 1/2

GLE with fGn can be derived from the interaction
between a particle and a harmonic oscillator heat bath.
Start from system Hamiltonian
