FIGURE 6:

Myo52p molecules lacking their cargo-binding domain undergo efficient motility along actin cables. (A) Time-lapse montages showing directed movement of full-length Myo52p-3xGFP (top) and truncated Myo52pΔCBD-3xGFP (bottom) particles in wild-type myo52-3xGFP and myo52ΔCBD-3xGFP cells, respectively (after growth on YE5S rich medium at 25°C). Directed movements were captured over time using TIRF microscopy. Far right, maximum projections of the particle trajectories. Bar, 4 μm. Representative events from the myo52ΔCBD-3xGFP strain are also presented in Supplemental Movie S5. (B) Histogram of the speed distribution of full-length Myo52p and Myo52pΔCBD particles. (C, D) Average run length (n = 45 in C) and event frequency (cell number = 82–122 in D) of motile Myo52p and Myo52pΔCBD particles. (E) Histogram of Myo52pΔCBD GFP intensity as number of dimeric motors/motile particle.
