abstract:
Myosin-5B is one of three members of the myosin-5 family of actin-based molecular motors fundamental in recycling endosome trafficking and collective actin network dynamics. Through single-molecule motility assays, we recently demonstrated that myosin-5B can proceed in 36-nm steps along actin filaments as single motor. By analyzing trajectories of single myosin-5B along actin filaments we showed that its velocity is dependent on ATP concentration, while its run length is independent on ATP concentration, as a landmark of processivity.
