What is the role of ADP in kinesin transport?

Question

Accepted Answer

∻Answer∻ ⚹ ADP is involved in the energy transfer that powers kinesin movement along microtubules. ⚹ ∻Solution∻ ‖ a ⋮ ADP release: Kinesin binds to microtubules and hydrolyzes ATP to ADP, which provides energy for conformational changes necessary for movement. ‖ ‖ b ⋮ Conformational change: The release of ADP from kinesin leads to a change in the shape of the kinesin molecule, which results in the "stepping" motion along the microtubule. ‖ ∻Key Concept∻ ⚹ ADP and energy transfer ⚹ ∻Explanation∻ ⚹ ADP is the product of ATP hydrolysis, which occurs when kinesin interacts with microtubules. The energy released during this process is used to induce conformational changes in kinesin that propel it along the microtubule, transporting various cellular cargoes.◊What is the relationship between ADP and ATP in cellular energy transport?⍭ Generate me a similar question◊⚹
