Researchers have captured a time-resolved video of a protein interaction essential to healthy brain development.

biophysics and structural approaches to define the molecular basis of these dynamic processes. Our first major contribution was to show, how a microtubule motor, kinesin-1, recognises the some of the ...

Kinesin “walking” across a molecular track. After two days ... Similarly, scientists discovered that motor memory—as indicated by how long mice can run on a rotating rod after training ...

Similarly, scientists discovered that motor memory — as indicated ... In our study, we speculated that kinesin was used to deliver molecular materials for “building” dendritic spines.

The microtubules in the same solution, modified with DNA and propelled by kinesin molecular ... different molecular groups, such as the DNA circuit system and the motor protein operating system.

function effectively as a reversible molecular motor. Although much of the heavy lifting in the body has shifted to use ATP with ATPases such as myosin and kinesin, GTPases have retained their ...

Stephan Grill is equally excited: “It’s a new class of molecular motors! This one doesn’t move around like the kinesin motor that transports cargo along microtubules but performs work while staying in ...

But taking our understanding of molecular cell physiology to the ... specifically the motor protein kinesin-1. To do this, the researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Medical Research ...

Kinesin’s relaxation from this state—a ... In a macroscopic motor, you use the energy in a fuel to overcome inertia. But in a molecular motor, everything is already moving thanks to Brownian ...
