Three myosin motors have distinct cellular functions and localizations. (Left) Myosin V transports cargos from microtubule tracks to actin tracks. Myosins VI and X transport cargos in actin-bundle-rich structures such as microvilli and filopodia, which have a more crowded cellular environment than lamellipodia. (Right) Spiral paths allow myosin motors to pass around obstacles along the actin track and search for their target partners (yellow) over circumferentially broader regions.
