Toxoplasma gondii myosin A and its light chain: a fast, single-headed, plusend directed motor (2002)

Herm-Götz,Angelika, Weiss,Stefan, Stratmann,Rolf, Fujita-Becker,Setsuko, Ruff,Christine, Meyhöfer,Edgar, ...

Successful host cell invasion is a prerequisite for survival of the obligate intracellular apicomplexan parasites and establishment of infection. Toxoplasma gondii penetrates host cells by an active...

Single-molecule tracking of myosins with genetically engineered amplifier domains (2001)

Ruff,Christine, Furch,Marcus, Brenner,Bernhard, Manstein,Dietmar J., Meyhöfer,Edgar

We combined protein engineering and single molecule measurements to directly record the step size of a series of myosin constructs with shortened and elongated artificial neck domains. Our results...

Different degrees of lever arm rotation control myosin step size

Köhler, Danny, Ruff, Christine, Meyhöfer, Edgar, Bähler, Martin

Myosins are actin-based motors that are generally believed to move by amplifying small structural changes in the core motor domain via a lever arm rotation of the light chain binding domain. However,...
