Abstract
In this paper, based on the structure of the ATPase and the master equation, we put forward a stochastic hopping model which describes the rotary four-state motor’s dynamics action. Finally, we obtained the relationship of the angle velocity ω, diffusion coefficient and the ATP’s concentration, and got a result which accords with the rotary motor’s biological mechanism.
