Mechanical inhibition of microtubule depolymerisation by kinesin

Kinesin-driven transport of molecular cargo along microtubules is central to the self-organisation of eukaryotic cells. We investigated the effect of kinesin-1 on microtubule stability using in vitro techniques. We found that kinesin-1, which was previously reported to have no influence on microtubu...
