Myosin VI Must Dimerize and Deploy Its Unusual Lever Arm in Order to Perform Its Cellular Roles
It is unclear whether the reverse-direction myosin (myosin VI) functions as a monomer or dimer in cells and how it generates large movements on actin. We deleted a stable, single-α-helix (SAH) domain that has been proposed to function as part of a lever arm to amplify movements without impact on in...
