The Tethered Motor Domain of a Kinesin-Microtubule Complex Catalyzes Reversible Synthesis of Bound ATP

Although the steps for the forward reaction of ATP hydrolysis by the motor protein kinesin have been studied extensively, the rates for the reverse reactions and thus the energy changes at each step are not as well defined. Oxygen isotopic exchange between water and Pi was used to evaluate the rever...
