Kinesin-1 mechanical flexibility and motor cooperation

Conventional kinesin (kinesin-1) transports membrane-bounded cargos such as mitochondria and vesicles along microtubules. In vivo it is likely that several kinesins move a single organelle and it is important that they operate in a coordinated fashion so that they do not interfere with each other. E...
