Fig. 3From: Kinesin-3 motors are fine-tuned at the molecular level to endow distinct mechanical outputsKinesin-3 motor velocity inversely correlates with microtubule affinity. A The measured velocity of kinesin-1 and kinesin-3 motors in single-molecule motility assays was found to be inversely proportional to the MT-binding affinity obtained from ATPase analysis. B Cartoon diagram showing kinesin-3 family (KIF1A, KIF13A, KIF13B, and KIF16B) motors are robust ATPases, complementing with their measured velocities. These velocities inversely correlate with their differential microtubule-binding affinityBack to article page
