| Name | GCN4-Kar3Vik1 bound to microtubules in the nucleotide-free state |
|---|---|
| Number of Components | 2 |
| Oligomeric State | One heterodimer of Kar3Vik1 binds to one heterodimer of alpha-beta tubulin |
| Details | GCN4-Kar3Vik1 was treated with the ATP/ADP hydrolyzing enzyme Apyrase prior to incubation with microtubules to generate the nucleotide-free-state microtubule-bound motor conformation. |
| Component #1: protein - GCN4-Kar3Vik1 | |
| Scientific name | GCN4-Kar3Vik1 |
| Theoretical Mass | 0.087 MDa |
| Experimental Mass | 0.087 MDa |
| Details | This truncated version of Kar3Vik1 contains the complete C-terminal globular domains as well as two and a half heptads of the native coiled coil. The GCN4 leucine zipper sequence was added to the N-terminus to initialize dimerization. |
