How actin initiates the motor activity of Myosin.

Archive ouverte | Llinas, Paola | CCSD

International audience. Fundamental to cellular processes are directional movements driven by molecular motors. A common theme for these and other molecular machines driven by ATP is that controlled release of hydro...

Processive Steps in the Reverse Direction Require Uncoupling of the Lead Head Lever Arm of Myosin VI

Archive ouverte | Ménétrey, Julie | CCSD

International audience. Myosin VI is the only known reverse-direction myosin motor. It has an unprecedented means of amplifying movements within the motor involving rearrangements of the converter subdomain at the C...

Myosin VI Must Dimerize and Deploy Its Unusual Lever Arm in Order to Perform Its Cellular Roles

Archive ouverte | Mukherjea, Monalisa | CCSD

International audience. 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...
