Abstract
Kinesin is a microtubule-based motor protein that pulls vesicles or organelles towards the plus end of microtubules. Structural changes in the protein that drive motility are coupled to ATP binding and hydrolysis. Here, we attempt to integrate recent structural and kinetic results into a picture of the mechanochemical cycle of kinesin.Entities:
