CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF MYOSIN V MOTOR WITH ESSENTIAL LIGHT CHAIN- NUCLEOTIDE-FREE

OverviewOverview

The myosin superfamily of molecular motors use ATP hydrolysis and, actin-activated product release to produce directed movement and force., Although this is generally thought to involve movement of a mechanical, lever arm attached to a motor core, the structural details of the, rearrangement in myosin that drive the lever arm motion on actin, attachment are unknown. Motivated by kinetic evidence that the processive, unconventional myosin, myosin V, populates a unique state in the absence, of nucleotide and actin, we obtained a 2.0 A structure of a myosin V, fragment. Here we reveal a conformation of myosin without bound, nucleotide. The nucleotide-binding site has adopted new conformations of, the nucleotide-binding elements that reduce the affinity for the, nucleotide. The major cleft in ... [(full description)]
