Structural highlights
- Scene #1
- Kinesin structure is composed of eight anti-parallel B sheets surrounded by three alpha helices on either side
- Scene #2
- This is the ATP binding site. Upon the binding of phosphate to ADP, ATP is formed giving Kinesin the energy needed to move the cargo one step a head to its destination
- Scene #3
- This is the Microtubule-binding site, where Kinesin binds to microtubules for stability
- Scene #4
- Charcot Marie Tooth is
