Discovery of the first unconventional myosin: Acanthamoeba myosin-I
Having characterized actin from Acanthamoeba castellanii (Weihing and Korn, Biochemistry, 1971, 10, 590–600) and knowing that myosin had been isolated from the slime mold Physarum (Hatano and Tazawa, Biochim. Biophys. Acta, 1968, 154, 507–519; Adelman and Taylor, Biochemistry, 1969, 8, 4976–4988), w...
