The Yeast Class V Myosins, Myo2p and Myo4p, Are Nonprocessive Actin-Based Motors
The motor properties of the two yeast class V myosins, Myo2p and Myo4p, were examined using in vitro motility assays. Both myosins are active motors with maximum velocities of 4.5 μm/s for Myo2p and 1.1 μm/s for Myo4p. Myo2p motility is Ca2+ insensitive. Both myosins have properties of a nonprocessi...
