a VMAX and Km (±S.E.) calculated by fitting actin-activated ATPase data (from Figs. 3A and 4A) to the Michaelis-Menten equation. ATPase activity: molecules of ATP hydrolyzed per motor per second.

b Catalytic efficiency, VMAX/Km.

c Mean in vitro motility rate ± S.D. (n is indicated in parentheses).

d p < 0.001 when compared to yeast actin.
