Question

Which statement below describes a feature that is shared between kinesin and dynein? a. Both proteins "walk" towards the (+) end of a microtubule b. Both proteins "walk" towards the (-) end of a microtubulec. Both proteins bind ATP and F-actin Both proteins function in the positioning of organelles inside a cell d. Both proteins associate with the same regulatory factors

Answer 1

Answer:

C)Both proteins bind ATP and F-actin

*C option is not mentioned* there is a flaw in the question

Explanation:

Two families of motor proteins, kinesin and dynein, transport membrane-bounded vesicles, proteins, and organelles along microtubules. Nearly all kinesins move cargo toward the (+) end of microtubules (anterograde transport), whereas dyneins transport cargo toward the (−) end (retrograde transport).While

both the protiens have globular ATP-binding heads that function as the motor domain and interact with the microtubules.
