... by The Company of Biologists Ltd 2017 http://www.biologists.com/user-licence-1-1/ Summary: Microtubule sliding produced by dynein molecules on glass can be modified flexibly under application of mechanical signals. This self-regulatory activity of dynein would be the basis of flagellar oscillation...
