A METAL SWITCH FOR CONTROLLING THE ACTIVITY OF MOLECULAR MOTOR PROTEINS
Kinesins are molecular motors that require a divalent metal ion (e.g., Mg(2+)) to convert the energy of ATP hydrolysis into directed force production along microtubules. Here we present the crystal structure of a recombinant kinesin motor domain bound to Mn(2+) and ADP, and report on a serine to cys...
