Preferred Label : Kinesins;
MeSH definition : A microtubule-associated mechanical adenosine triphosphatase, that uses the energy
of ATP hydrolysis to move organelles along microtubules toward the plus end of the
microtubule. The protein is found in squid axoplasm, optic lobes, and in bovine brain.
Bovine kinesin is a heterotetramer composed of two heavy (120 kDa) and two light (62
kDa) chains. EC 3.6.1.-.; A microtubule-associated mechanical adenosine triphosphatase, that uses the energy
of ATP hydrolysis to move organelles along microtubules toward the plus end of the
microtubule. The protein is found in squid axoplasm, optic lobes, and in bovine brain.
