eLife, 2015 Myosin 5a is a dual-headed molecular motor that transports cargo along actin filaments. By following the motion of individual heads with interferometric scattering microscopy at nm spatial and ms temporal precision we found that the detached head ...

Effect of the Neck Linker on Processive Stepping of Kinesin Motor
Biophysica, 2023 Kinesin motor protein, which is composed of two catalytic domains connected together by a long coiled-coil stalk via two flexible neck linkers (NLs), can step processively on a microtubule towards the plus end by hydrolyzing adenosine triphosphate (ATP ...

Morphological characteristics of motor neurons do not determine their relative susceptibility to degeneration in a mouse model of severe spinal muscular atrophy [PDF]
, 2012 Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a leading genetic cause of infant mortality, resulting primarily from the degeneration and loss of lower motor neurons.

Robustness in an Ultrasensitive Motor
mBio, 2020 In Escherichia coli, the chemotaxis response regulator CheY-P binds to FliM, a component of the switch complex at the base of the bacterial flagellar motor, to modulate the direction of motor rotation.

Direct conversion of human pluripotent stem cells into cranial motor neurons using a piggyBac vector [PDF]
, 2018 Human pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) are widely used for in vitro disease modeling. One of the challenges in the field is represented by the ability of converting human PSCs into specific disease-relevant cell types.

Transient pauses of the bacterial flagellar motor at low load
New Journal of Physics, 2016 The bacterial flagellar motor (BFM) is the molecular machine responsible for the swimming and chemotaxis of many species of motile bacteria. The BFM is bidirectional, and changes in the rotation direction of the motor are essential for chemotaxis. It has

The human cytoplasmic dynein interactome reveals novel activators of motility
eLife, 2017 In human cells, cytoplasmic dynein-1 is essential for long-distance transport of many cargos, including organelles, RNAs, proteins, and viruses, towards microtubule minus ends.

The mean velocity of two-state models of molecular motor
, 2011 The motion of molecular motor is essential to the biophysical functioning of living cells. In principle, this motion can be regraded as a multiple chemical states process.

Foxp1 and lhx1 coordinate motor neuron migration with axon trajectory choice by gating Reelin signalling. [PDF]
, 2010 Topographic neuronal maps arise as a consequence of axon trajectory choice correlated with the localisation of neuronal soma, but the identity of the pathways coordinating these processes is unknown.
