Kinesin-1 activity recorded in living cells with a precipitating dye
Monitoring the activity of the processive motor protein kinesin-1 in live cells is currently difficult. Here the authors report the fluorogenic small molecule QPD-OTf, a kinesin-1 substrate that causes activity-dependent dye precipitation.
