Question

Which of the following molecular motor proteins is associated with microtubules?

a. kinesins
b. dyneins
c. myosins
d. both (1) and (2)
e. both (1), (2), and (3)

Answer 1

Kinesins are the molecular motor proteins associated with microtubules. They use ATP hydrolysis to move along microtubule tracks and facilitate intracellular transportation. Hence the correct answer is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

The molecular motor protein that is associated with microtubules is kinesins. Kinesins are ATPases that use the energy from ATP hydrolysis to move along microtubule tracks within cells. They are responsible for the movement of organelles and vesicles along microtubules, allowing for intracellular transportation.

Hence the correct answer is option A
