Figure 7. Probabilities of successive steps.

Figure 7

(A) How to count successive steps. Backward steps were included within successive steps. Total number of steps before detachment make up ‘number of steps’ in B. (B) Number of steps by M5SH (red circles; n = 373) and M5DH (blue squares; n = 182) in 100 µM ATP. Solid lines are the fitting results with a single exponential curve. (C) Explanation of probability P. Myosin heads generated the next successive step with a probability of P and detached with that of (1−P).
