Kinesin Protein
(lemmy.nz)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules
Fast relative to what? The point is that the kinesin protein doesn’t “walk” any more than floating debris “swims.”
Relative to the speed shown in the visualizations. The pop-sci animations look like it takes one step every second or so, while in reality they do hundreds per second.
And they stop, pause, and can go backwards.
