Novel Ways to Determine Kinesin-1's Run Length and Randomness Using Fluorescence Microscopy

The molecular motor protein Kinesin-1 drives intracellular transport of vesicles, by binding to microtubules and making hundreds of consecutive 8-nm steps along them. Three important parameters define the motility of such a linear motor: velocity, run length (the average distance traveled), and the...
