A MOLECULAR MOTOR FINDS ITS TRACK The detailed mechanism by which the molecular motors kinesin and myosin travel along their respective protein tracks as they generate force during motile
processes is still poorly understood. In a recent breakthrough, a crystal structure of kinesin in complex with tubulin illuminates the atomic-level details of a motor-track interaction,
answering many questions yet leaving a number of mysteries unresolved. * Jared C Cochran * F Jon Kull
