Processivity of the monomeric KLP-6 kinesin and a Brownian ratchet model with symmetric potentials
Tomoki Kita, Kazuo Sasaki, Shinsuke Niwa
This study shows that the monomeric kinesin-3 motor KLP-6 moves processively along microtubules via its tail domain, explained by a Brownian ratchet model involving conformational changes rather than asymmetric potentials.
