Genetic techniques for enhancing biochemical and structural characterization of Dictyostelium myosin II.

Methods (San Diego, Calif.) - 1 Dec 2000

Patterson B

Abstract excerpt

Myosin mutants and their suppressors can provide information about conformational states of the myosin motor and their biochemical properties. Appropriate mutations can give rise to motors that arrest or overoccupy otherwise inaccessible states in the motor cycle. Intragenic (in the same gene) suppressor mutations that counteract mutations of known properties represent "fixes" or counters to the defect of the...
