Biased Brownian Motion of KIF1A and the Role of Tubulin’s C-Terminal Tail Studied by Molecular Dynamics Simulation

KIF1A is a kinesin family protein that moves over a long distance along the microtubule (MT) to transport synaptic vesicle precursors in neurons. A single KIF1A molecule can move toward the plus-end of MT in the monomeric form, exhibiting the characteristics of biased Brownian motion. However, how t...
