DESCRIPTION:Molecular motors are critical and found everywhere in a living
  cell. There are two classes: the linear motors that propel along the leng
 th of filaments\, and the rotary motors that spin for propulsion (as in ba
 cterial flagellae) or for other cyclic functions of the cell (as in ATP sy
 nthase). We shall examine the physical principles that enable the motor ac
 tion of molecular complexes on a size scale dominated by thermal motion an
 d friction\, and the energy budget required for operating them.
