This study provides compelling evidence that kinesin's stepping mechanism is governed by strain-induced conformational changes in its nucleotide-binding pockets. Using pre-steady state kinetics and ...

In vertebrates, the skeleton of different regions of the body arises from different precursor cells. Researchers at the ...

A recent study has identified PhSLB1 as a crucial regulator of branch development in petunia (Petunia hybrida), offering ...

A natural antibacterial molecule shows clinical promise. Its unusual binding site is on an excellent target: ...

Harvard Medical School scientists have identified a key protein in the human immune system that drives inflammatory and ...

This manuscript investigates the role of the neck linker in coordinating the stepping cycles of the two heads of a kinesin-1 motor. Previous studies in the field showed that kinesin walks by ...

One of the major proteins linked to the condition is now better understood.

1). This mammalian homologue of the yeast protein ... Myo2 (a type-V myosin motor) and Smy1 (a kinesin-like protein) (reviewed in ref. 43). Sec4, a Rab GTPase, could first recruit a motor to ...
