  A hopping model for molecular motors is presented consisting of a state with
asymmetric hopping rates with period 2 and a state with uniform hopping rates.
State changes lead to a stationary unidirectional current of a particle. The
current is explicitly calculated as a function of the rate of state changes,
including also an external bias field. The Einstein relation between the linear
mobility of the particle and its diffusion coefficient is investigated. The
power input into the system is derived, as well as the power output resulting
from the work performed against the bias field. The efficiency of this model is
found to be rather small.
