Nano-Particles Carried by Multiple Dynein Motors Self-Regulate Their Number of Actively Participating Motors

Nano-Particles Carried by Multiple Dynein Motors Self-Regulate Their Number of Actively Participating Motors

Intra-cellular active transport by native cargos is ubiquitous. We investigate the motion of spherical nano-particles (NPs) grafted with flexible polymers that end with a nuclear localization signal peptide. This peptide allows the recruitment of several <i>mammalian</i> dynein motors fr...
