Molecular Devices AUnidirectional DNAWalker That Moves Autonomously along a Track**
Amajor challenge in nanotechnology is to precisely transport a nanoscale object from one location on a nanostructure to another location along a designated path. The successful construction of self-assembled DNA nanostructures provides a solid structural foundation to meet this challenge. DNA, with its immense information-encoding capacity and welldefinedWaston–Crick complementarity, has been e...
متن کاملDual targets of a transcriptional activator that tracks on DNA.
The sliding clamp of the bacteriophage T4 DNA polymerase, gp45, is also the proximal effector for activation of transcription of T4 late genes. We have identified the phage T4-encoded sigma factor gp55 and the co-activator gp33 as targets of gp45 in promoter complexes, and have shown that a conserved carboxy-terminal amino acid sequence of gp55 and gp33 is required for interaction with gp45. Th...
متن کاملHow Dynein Moves Along Microtubules.
Cytoplasmic dynein, a member of the AAA (ATPases Associated with diverse cellular Activities) family of proteins, drives the processive movement of numerous intracellular cargos towards the minus end of microtubules. Here, we summarize the structural and motile properties of dynein and highlight features that distinguish this motor from kinesin-1 and myosin V, two well-studied transport motors....
متن کاملInvertebrate Central Pattern Generation Moves along
Central pattern generators (CPGs) are circuits that generate organized and repetitive motor patterns, such as those underlying feeding, locomotion and respiration. We summarize recent work on invertebrate CPGs which has provided new insights into how rhythmic motor patterns are produced and how they are controlled by higher-order command and modulatory interneurons.
