Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2014 The folding and assembly of myosin motor proteins is essential for most movement processes at the cellular, but also at the organism level. Importantly, myosins, which represent a very diverse family of proteins, require the activity of general and specialized folding factors to develop their full motor function.

Myosins VIII and XI play distinct roles in reproduction and transport of tobacco mosaic virus.
PLoS Pathogens, 2014 Viruses are obligatory parasites that depend on host cellular factors for their replication as well as for their local and systemic movement to establish infection.

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 Elevated levels of the metabolic by-products, including acidosis (i.e., high [H+]) and phosphate (Pi) are putative agents of muscle fatigue; however, the mechanism through which they affect myosin’s function remain unclear. To elucidate these mechanisms,

BMC Plant Biology, 2012 Background The positioning and dynamics of vesicles and organelles, and thus the growth of plant cells, is mediated by the acto-myosin system. In Arabidopsis there are 13 class XI myosins which mediate vesicle and organelle transport in different cell ...

Thick filament‐associated myosin undergoes frequent replacement at the tip of the thick filament
FEBS Open Bio, 2022 Myosin plays a fundamental role in muscle contraction. Approximately 300 myosins form a bipolar thick filament, in which myosin is continuously replaced by protein turnover.

Distribution and evolution of stable single α-helices (SAH domains) in myosin motor proteins. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Stable single-alpha helices (SAHs) are versatile structural elements in many prokaryotic and eukaryotic proteins acting as semi-flexible linkers and constant force springs.

Myosin V-mediated transport of Snc1 and Vps10 toward the trans-Golgi network
European Journal of Cell Biology, 2021 Retrieval of cargo proteins from the endosome towards the trans-Golgi network (TGN) is a crucial intracellular process for cellular homeostasis. Its dysfunction is associated with pathogenesis of Alzheimer and Parkinson's diseases. Myosin family proteins

Type-I myosins promote actin polymerization to drive membrane bending in endocytosis
eLife, 2019 Clathrin-mediated endocytosis in budding yeast requires the formation of a dynamic actin network that produces the force to invaginate the plasma membrane against the intracellular turgor pressure.
