    Myosin V walks hand-over-hand: single fluorophore imaging with 1.5-nm localization (2003)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2003-06-07
    Description: Myosin V is a dimeric molecular motor that moves processively on actin, with the center of mass moving approximately 37 nanometers for each adenosine triphosphate hydrolyzed. We have labeled myosin V with a single fluorophore at different positions in the light-chain domain and measured the step size with a standard deviation of 〈1.5 nanometers, with 0.5-second temporal resolution, and observation times of minutes. The step size alternates between 37 + 2x nm and 37 - 2x, where x is the distance along the direction of motion between the dye and the midpoint between the two heads. These results strongly support a hand-over-hand model of motility, not an inchworm model.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yildiz, Ahmet -- Forkey, Joseph N -- McKinney, Sean A -- Ha, Taekjip -- Goldman, Yale E -- Selvin, Paul R -- AR26846/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- AR44420/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- GM65367/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- PHS 5 T32 GM08276/PH/PHPPO CDC HHS/ -- R01 GM065367/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2003 Jun 27;300(5628):2061-5.

    Kinesin walks hand-over-hand (2003)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2003-12-20
    Description: Kinesin is a processive motor that takes 8.3-nm center-of-mass steps along microtubules for each adenosine triphosphate hydrolyzed. Whether kinesin moves by a "hand-over-hand" or an "inchworm" model has been controversial. We have labeled a single head of the kinesin dimer with a Cy3 fluorophore and localized the position of the dye to within 2 nm before and after a step. We observed that single kinesin heads take steps of 17.3 +/- 3.3 nm. A kinetic analysis of the dwell times between steps shows that the 17-nm steps alternate with 0-nm steps. These results strongly support a hand-over-hand mechanism, and not an inchworm mechanism. In addition, our results suggest that kinesin is bound by both heads to the microtubule while it waits for adenosine triphosphate in between steps.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yildiz, Ahmet -- Tomishige, Michio -- Vale, Ronald D -- Selvin, Paul R -- AR42895/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- AR44420/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Jan 30;303(5658):676-8.
