UNDERSTANDING THE MECHANISM OF MOTILITY OF THE HETERODIMERIC KINESIN-14 KAR3VIK1

The kinesin-14 Kar3 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc) is a C-terminal motor that forms a heterodimer with the kinesin-accessory protein Vik1. Although Vik1 possesses a typical kinesin motor domain (MD) fold, it lacks a nucleotide-binding site. However, it binds microtubules with affinities that can...
