Myosins A Superfamily of Molecular Motors, 2nd edition Introduction

摘要

This book, a collection of chapters written by some of the leading researchers in the field of molecular motors, highlights the current understanding of the structure, molecular mechanism, and cellular roles of members of the myosin superfamily. Here, I briefly review the discovery of the first myosin motor, skeletal muscle myosin-II, and preview the contents of subsequent chapters.
