Structural basis of cooperativity in kinesin revealed by 3D reconstruction of a two-head-bound state on microtubules
The detailed basis of walking by dimeric molecules of kinesin along microtubules has remained unclear, partly because available structural methods have been unable to capture microtubule-bound intermediates of this process. Utilizing novel electron cryomicroscopy methods, we solved structures of mic...
