A self-powered kinesin-microtubule system for smart cargo delivery†
Abstract
A smart self-powered cargo delivery system that is composed of creatine phosphate kinase (CPK) microspheres, kinesins and microtubules is demonstrated. The CPK microsphere not only acts as an ATP generation and buffering system, but also as a carrier for cargo transport, thus realizing the easy loading and self-powered delivery of cargos at the same time.
