Abstract: Myosin and kinesin are biomolecular motors found in living cells. By propelling their associated cytoskeletal filaments, these biomolecular motors facilitate force generation and material transport in the cells. When extracted, the biomolecular motors are promising… read more here.

Abstract: Molecular shuttles can be autonomously sorted by designing electromechanical properties of microtubules. Kinesin-driven microtubules have been focused on to serve as molecular transporters, called “molecular shuttles,” to replace micro/nanoscale molecular manipulations necessitated in micro total… read more here.
