Researchers at UC San Diegos Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, in collaboration with several universities in the U.S., United Kingdom, and Poland, have developed a new picture of how kinesin molecules move along microtubules, or tiny biological train tracks and how they sometimes come to a halt, causing diseases such as Alzheimers.
