Abstract

Three families of cytoskeletal motor protein – the myosins, kinesins and dyneins – have evolved to mediate transport of cells and of structures and materials within cells in eukaryotes. Whereas myosin uses actin polymers to carry out its tasks, kinesin and dynein are microtubule-associated
