Torque-generating units of the bacterial flagellar motor are rotary motors

Bacteria swim by rotating rigid helical flagellar filaments. Here, we find that the torque-generating unit that drives flagellar rotation is itself a rotary motor. Each torque-generating unit is a ...

Kinesin rotates unidirectionally and generates torque while walking on microtubules

Given the importance of cytoskeletal motor proteins, we asked whether translational motors rotate while walking along their tracks. Using an optical tweezers-based approach, we simultaneously measured ...
