Structure-based molecular simulations reveal the enhancement of biased Brownian motions in single-headed kinesin.
Kinesin is a family of molecular motors that move unidirectionally along microtubules (MT) using ATP hydrolysis free energy. In the family, the conventional two-headed kinesin was experimentally characterized to move unidirectionally through "walking" in a hand-over-hand fashion by coordin...
