This fully updated volume presents a diverse collection of protocols and methodologies for studying various molecular motors. The book explores the dynamics of the bacterial flagellar motor, the mechanisms of ATP synthase, the assembly and function of cytoskeletal motors, and the role of nucleic acid motors in cellular processes, while placing a strong emphasis on state-of-the-art techniques, highlighting innovative methods such as single-molecule visualization and high-resolution tracking, sophisticated biochemical assays, bioengineering applications, as well as computational modeling. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.
Authoritative and practical, Molecular Motors: Methods and Protocols, Third Edition serves as an ideal guide to enable researchers to probe the mechanisms of molecular motors with unprecedented precision and detail.
