Organization of two kinesins in a two-dimensional microtubule network

Abstract:In intracellular active transport, molecular motors are responsible for moving biological cargo along networks of microtubules that serve as scaffolds. Cargo dynamics can be modified by different features of microtubule networks such as geometry, density, orientation modifications. Also, the dynamical behaviour of the molecular motors is determined by the microtubule network and by the individual and/or collective action of the motors. For example, unlike single kinesins, the mechanistic behavior of multiple k… Show more
