Crystallization (Commentary)

EC Number Crystallization (Comment) Organism
5.6.1.4 upon ATP binding, a coiled-coil mechanical element of microtubule-bound Ncd rotates about 79° towards the minus end Drosophila melanogaster

Protein Variants

EC Number Protein Variants Comment Organism
5.6.1.4 additional information construction of a single-headed Ncd heterodimer in which one polypeptide consists of an intact Ncd catalytic core and neck (residues 280–700) and the second polypeptide consists of the neck region alone (residues 281–347). This motor elicits microtubule gliding at a velocity comparable to that of the normal twoheaded Ncd homodimer with a similar ATPase kcat-value Drosophila melanogaster
5.6.1.4 N600K mutant lacks directional preference. Mutant shows unstable nucleotide-dependent conformations of its coiled coil Drosophila melanogaster
