Determination of the Maximum Velocity of Filaments in the in vitro Motility Assay

The in vitro motility assay (IVMA) is a powerful tool commonly used in basic muscle research and for drug screenings with the aim to find treatment options for neuromuscular disorders. In brief, the sliding movement of fluorescence-labeled actin filaments on myosin motor proteins is recorded, and th...
