Correlation Imaging Reveals Specific Crowding Dynamics of Kinesin Motor Proteins

Molecular motor proteins fulfill the critical function of transporting organelles and other building blocks along the biopolymer network of the cell’s cytoskeleton, but crowding effects are believed to crucially affect this motor-driven transport due to motor interactions. Physical transport models,...
