The Kinesin superfamily is a large group of molecular motors that use the turnover of ATP to regulate their interaction with the microtubule cytoskeleton. The coupled relationship between nucleotide turnover and microtubule binding is harnessed in va... Read More about Parts list for a microtubule depolymerising kinesin.

© 2018 Biochemical Society. If you've only ever heard of one kinesin, it's likely to be one that walks along microtubules and carries cargo around in the cell. However, this type of kinesin is only part of the kinesin story. The 'kinesin superfamily'... Read More about Not just a pretty cargo carrier: The other face of kinesins.
