Figure 8

(a) Velocity of actin filaments (VF) as function of ATP from Fig. 7a and number of HMM molecules (N) available for interaction as function of ATP from Fig. 5b are plotted together at two different HMM densities (100 and 600 μg/ml). (b) Assuming a working stroke of d = 10 nm, with known number of interacting motors (N) and average sliding velocity (VF) we calculated number of working strokes per molecule per second or average time taken for single ATPase cycle by a HMM molecule (N. d/VF). Average cycle time is plotted as function of number of motors available for interaction. Error bars denote standard error.
