Kinesins in cell migration.
Human cells express 45 kinesins, microtubule motors that transport a variety of molecules and organelles within the cell. Many kinesins also modulate the tracks they move on by either bundling or sliding or regulating the dynamic assembly and disassembly of the microtubule polymer. In migrating cells, microtubules control the asymmetry between the front and rear of the cell by differentially re...
متن کاملMicrotubule-regulating kinesins
How do they reproduce? Unlike many other starfish, the general body surface of crown-of-thorns starfish is soft and flexible, which enables it to swell as it develops huge gonads. Fecundity is obviously related to size, but, as an example, a 40 cm diameter crown-of-thorns starfish may commit about 45% of its total body energy to reproduction and shed an astonishing 50 million eggs. Like many ma...
متن کاملDynamics of heterodimeric kinesins and cooperation of kinesins
Using the model for the processive movement of a dimeric kinesin we proposed before, we study the dynamics of a number of mutant homodimeric and heterodimeric kinesins that were constructed by Kaseda et al. (Kaseda, K., Higuchi, H. & Hirose, K. (2002) PNAS 99, 16058–16063). The theoretical results of ATPase rate per head, moving velocity, and stall force of the motors show good agreement with t...

متن کاملIntracellular Transport: Kinesins Working Together
While most in vitro experiments with motor proteins focus on the behavior of individual motors, in cells most cargo are transported by multiple motors and even multiple classes of motor. How these motors cooperate and compete in transporting cargo is not clear. Recent experimental and theoretical work suggests that motors attached to a given cargo interact in both expected and unexpected ways.
