The motion of motor proteins on biopolymers is important for diverse biological processes. Actin, microtubules, and nucleic acids can serve as one-dimensional tracks on which motor proteins move.

During the first part of anaphase, the kinetochore microtubules ... These latter movements are currently thought to be catalyzed by motor proteins that connect microtubules with opposite polarity ...

Despite their genius, DNA-nanoparticle motors don't have the speed of their biological counterparts, the motor protein, which is where the issue lies. This is where researchers come in to analyze ...

Despite their potential, DNA-nanoparticle motors don't have the speed of their biological counterparts, the motor protein, which is where the issue lies. This is where researchers come in to ...

The findings are detailed in the paper 'The Interplay of the Translocase Activity and Protein Recruitment Function of PICH in Ultrafine Anaphase Bridge Resolution and Genomic Stability', published ...
