A Day in the Life of a Motor Protein

The primary aim of the Hoogenraad research lab at the University of Utrecht, the Netherlands, is to understand how intracellular protein transport underlies the development and function of nerve cells. During this 5 min movie we follow John, a motor protein, who has to transport his package to the right destination in the nerve cell, illustrating the relevance and mechanisms of proper intracellular transport in the nervous system. http://cellbiology.science.uu.nl http://NCUtrecht.nl http://redrumbureau.nl Permission to use this video is not required.
