Coupling of Two Non-processive Myosin 5c Dimers Enables Processive Stepping along Actin Filaments
Myosin 5c (Myo5c) is a low duty ratio, non-processive motor unable to move continuously along actin filaments though it is believed to participate in secretory vesicle trafficking in vertebrate cells. Here, we measured the ATPase kinetics of Myo5c dimers and tested the possibility that the coupling of two Myo5c molecules enables processive movement. Steady-state ATPase activity and ADP dissocia...
متن کاملFull-length myosin VI dimerizes and moves processively along actin filaments upon monomer clustering.
Myosin VI is a reverse direction actin-based motor capable of taking large steps (30-36 nm) when dimerized. However, all dimeric myosin VI molecules so far examined have included non-native coiled-coil sequences, and reports on full-length myosin VI have failed to demonstrate the existence of dimers. Herein, we demonstrate that full-length myosin VI is capable of forming stable, processive dime...
متن کاملOrganelle Transport: Dynamic Actin Tracks for Myosin Motors
Transport of cargo by molecular motors on microtubule and actin filament tracks is a fundamental property of eukaryotic cells. A new study reports that actin dynamics are required in cells for myosin I and V motor proteins to transport their organelle cargos on actin tracks.
متن کاملMyosin Va maneuvers through actin intersections and diffuses along microtubules.
Certain types of intracellular organelle transport to the cell periphery are thought to involve long-range movement on microtubules by kinesin with subsequent handoff to vertebrate myosin Va (myoVa) for local delivery on actin tracks. This process may involve direct interactions between these two processive motors. Here we demonstrate using single molecule in vitro techniques that myoVa is flex...
متن کاملHow Dynein Moves Along Microtubules.
Cytoplasmic dynein, a member of the AAA (ATPases Associated with diverse cellular Activities) family of proteins, drives the processive movement of numerous intracellular cargos towards the minus end of microtubules. Here, we summarize the structural and motile properties of dynein and highlight features that distinguish this motor from kinesin-1 and myosin V, two well-studied transport motors....
