Coordination of Individual and Ensemble Cytoskeletal Motors Studied Using Tools from DNA Nanotechnology
The cytoskeletal molecular motors kinesin-1 and cytoplasmic dynein drive many diverse functions within eukaryotic cells. They are responsible for numerous spatially and temporally dependent intracellular processes crucial for cellular activity, including cytokinesis, maintenance of sub-cellular orga...
