The force exerted by a molecular motor [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
The stochastic driving force exerted by a single molecular motor (e.g., a kinesin, or myosin) moving on a periodic molecular track (microtubule, actin filament, etc.) is discussed from a general viewpoint open to experimental test.

Impairments in motor coordination without major changes in cerebellar plasticity in the Tc1 mouse model of Down syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Down syndrome (DS) is a genetic disorder arising from the presence of a third copy of human chromosome 21 (Hsa21). Recently, O’Doherty et al. [An aneuploid mouse strain carrying human chromosome 21 with Down syndrome phenotypes. Science 309 (2005) 2033–

Non-Adiabatic Dynamics Simulations of a Light-Driven Molecular Motor in Solution

open access: yes, 2021
Despite molecular motors have numerous potential applications in optoelectronics, where optical properties can be tuned to transform light into mechanical movements, finding relationships between molecular motion and the environment is challenging. Here,

Cellular Motors for Molecular Manufacturing [PDF]

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, 2007
AbstractCells are composed of macromolecular structures of various sizes that act individually or collectively to maintain their viability and perform their function within the organism. This review focuses on one structure, the microtubule, and one of the motor proteins that move along it, conventional kinesin (kinesin 1).

Sodium channel inactivation kinetics of rat sensory and motor nerve fibres and their modulation by glutathione [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Na+ channel currents of rat motor and sensory nerve fibres were studied with the patch-clamp technique on enzymatically demyelinated axons. Differences between motor and sensory fibres in multi-channel inactivation kinetics and the gating of late single ...

Transport characteristics of molecular motors [PDF]

open access: yesBiosystems, 2008
Properties of transport of molecular motors are investigated. A simplified model based on the concept of Brownian ratchets is applied. We analyze a stochastic equation of motion by means of numerical methods. The transport is systematically studied with respect to its energetic efficiency and quality expressed by an effective diffusion coefficient.

External Stresses Affect Gonococcal Type 4 Pilus Dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Bacterial type 4 pili (T4P) are extracellular polymers that serve both as adhesins and molecular motors. Functionally, they are involved in adhesion, colony formation, twitching motility, and horizontal gene transfer.

Gene profiling of identified neurons to dissect molecular mechanisms involved in spinal reflex assembly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The central question during my PhD studies was to understand the molecular mechanisms and genetic cascades controlling the sequential specification of distinct classes of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) sensory neurons, with a particular focus on genes ...

Structural dynamics of myosin 5 during processive motion revealed by interferometric scattering microscopy

open access: yeseLife, 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 ...
