Motor generated torque drives coupled yawing and orbital rotations of kinesin coated gold nanorods
In vitro kinesin-coated gold nanorod (kinesin-GNRs) assays reveal that torque drives both rolling and yawing of kinesin-GNRs translocating along the microtubule axis with possible relevance to intracellular transport.
