The reigning Olympic champion Zheng Qinwen is looking for her ninth straight win at Roland Garros, while Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek and Jasmine Paolini look to advance.

Norway's Casper Ruud criticises the ATP's ranking system and describes it "like a rat race" which forces players to compete ...

Mutation of Lis1, a key dynein regulator, can lead to the rare mental developmental disorder lissencephaly, or “smooth brain, ...

Abstract: We developed Linear Zero Mode Waveguides (LZMWs) for simultaneous observation of kinesin displacement and ATP hydrolysis cycle under higher concentration of fluorescently labeled ATP than ...

Dubbed the “premium tour,” it included Wimbledon and the Australian, French and U.S. Opens, alongside 10 more top-level tournaments run through the ATP (men’s) and WTA (women’s ...

Here, we investigate 3D microtubule-microtubule sliding mediated by the human kinesin-5, KIF11, and found that the motor caused right-handed helical motion of anti-parallel microtubules around each ...

Kinesins are biological motor proteins that are ATP-dependent and function to assist ... the minus end of the microtubule. Structurally, kinesin exists as a heterotetramer that is composed of ...

hydrolyze ATP to enable its movement on filamentous actin (F-actin), towards the fast-growing “barbed” end (plus end) of the polar microfilaments [for reviews (Kato et al., 2018; Sweeney and Holzbaur, ...

Members of kinesin and dynein families are mechanochemical enzymes that hydrolyze ATP to generate force and take steps along the microtubules while transporting cellular cargoes. Most kinesins ...

If this happens, ATP can be hydrolyzed in both heads, prompting the kinesin to be released from the microtubule, stopping its motion. Propofol binding shortens this "run length" by up to 60%.
