Genetic analysis of Pten and Ink4a/Arf interactions in the suppression of tumorigenesis in mice.

abstract：:Actin-myosin (actomyosin) generates mechanical force by consuming ATP molecules. We apply the energy landscape perspective to address a controversial issue as to whether the myosin head moves with multiple steps after a single ATP hydrolysis or only a single mechanical event of the lever-arm swinging follows a single ...
