Abstract excerpt
Motor proteins are active enzymatic molecules that are critically important for a variety of biological phenomena. It is known that some neurodegenerative diseases are caused by specific mutations in motor proteins that lead to their malfunctioning. Hereditary spastic paraplegia is one of such diseases, and it is associated with the mutations in the neuronal conventional kinesin gene, producing the decreased...
