Intracellular transport is a vital process that allows cells to move proteins and other molecules to specific locations. This process is especially important in neurons, which have highly polarized ...
Centralspindlin is a heterotetrameric protein complex consisting of dimeric kinesin-6 (Pavarotti or Pav-KLP in Drosophila melanogaster (Pav/kinesin-6), ZEN-4 in Caenorhabditis elegans and CHO1/MKLP1 ...
Biophysicists at Stanford University have finally answered one of the most fundamental questions in molecular biology: How does the tiny motor molecule, known as kinesin, move across a living cell?

Zachary Gergely, Michele Jones, Bojun Zhou, Cai Cash, J. Richard McIntosh, and Meredith D. Betterton (2023). Distinct regions of the kinesin-5 C-terminal tail are essential for mitotic spindle midzone ...
Researchers detail the mechanism that allows propofol, a common anesthetic, to halt the movement of kinesin proteins that deliver cargoes to the far reaches of cells. Like a wrench that gums up the ...
For decades, scientists have known that motor proteins like kinesin-2 ferry vital cargo along microtubule "highways" inside cells. But how these molecular vehicles identify and bind to the right cargo ...
