Mechanistic insights into the active site and allosteric communication pathways in human nonmuscle myosin-2C

Despite a generic, highly conserved motor domain, ATP turnover kinetics and their activation by F-actin vary greatly between myosin-2 isoforms. Here, we present a 2.25 Å pre-powerstroke state (ADP⋅VO4) crystal structure of the human nonmuscle myosin-2C motor domain, one of the slowest myosins charac...
