Motor proteins and molecular motors: how to operate machines at the nanoscale [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2013 Several classes of biological molecules that transform chemical energy into mechanical work are known as motor proteins or molecular motors. These nanometer-sized machines operate in noisy stochastic isothermal environments, strongly supporting fundamental cellular processes such as the transfer of genetic information, transport, organization and ...

Kinesin-14 : the roots of reversal [PDF]
, 2010 Kinesin-14 motor proteins step towards microtubule minus ends, in the opposite direction to other kinesins. Work on the still-enigmatic kinesin-14 mechanism published in BMC Structural Biology shows that the carboxyl terminus of the motor head undergoes ...

Multiscale molecular dynamics simulations of rotary motor proteins [PDF]
Biophysical Reviews, 2017 Protein functions require specific structures frequently coupled with conformational changes. The scale of the structural dynamics of proteins spans from the atomic to the molecular level. Theoretically, all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulation is a powerful tool to investigate protein dynamics because the MD simulation is capable of capturing ...

cDNA that encodes active agrin [PDF]
, 1992 Agrin is thought to mediate the motor neuron-induced aggregation of AChRs and AChE on the surface of muscle fibers at neuromuscular junctions. We have isolated a cDNA from a chick brain library that, based on sequence homology and expression experiments,

Experimental test of connector rotation during DNA packaging into bacteriophage phi29 capsids [PDF]
, 2007 The bacteriophage phi29 generates large forces to compact its double-stranded DNA genome into a protein capsid by means of a portal motor complex. Several mechanical models for the generation of these high forces by the motor complex predict coupling of ...
