Mechanism of unidirectional movement of kinesin motors
Kinesin motors have been studied extensively both experimentally and theoretically. However, the microscopic mechanism of the processive movement of kinesin is still an open question. In this paper, we propose a hand-over-hand model for the processivity of kinesin, which is based on chemical, mechanical, and electrical couplings. In the model the processive movement does not need to rely on the...
متن کاملModel for unidirectional movement of axonemal and cytoplasmic dynein molecules.
A model for the unidirectional movement of dynein is presented based on the structural observations and biochemical experimental results available. In this model, the binding affinity of dynein for microtubule (MT) is independent of its nucleotide state and the change between strong and weak MT-binding is determined naturally by the variation of relative orientation between the stalk and MT, as...
متن کاملDisplaying Bivariate Data
Numerical techniques are too often designed to yield specific answers to rigidly defined questions. Graphical techniques are less confining. They aid in understanding the numerous relationships reflected in the data. They help reveal the existence of peculiar looking observations or subsets of the data. It is difficult to obtain similar information from numerical procedures. In this article, by...
متن کاملCoupled myosin VI motors facilitate unidirectional movement on an F-actin network
Unconventional myosins interact with the dense cortical actin network during processes such as membrane trafficking, cell migration, and mechanotransduction. Our understanding of unconventional myosin function is derived largely from assays that examine the interaction of a single myosin with a single actin filament. In this study, we have developed a model system to study the interaction betwe...
متن کاملUnidirectional movement of fluorescent microtubules on rows of dynein arms of disintegrated axonemes.
Tetramethylrhodamine-labelled microtubules were observed to move on rows of dynein arms of sea urchin sperm axonemes exposed by elastase-induced sliding disintegration. The microtubules moved towards the flagellar tip at a velocity of 3.1+/-2.1 microm second-1 (mean +/- s.d., n=53) in the presence of 0.1 mM ATP at 22 degrees C, but none moved towards the sperm head. We also examined the polarit...
