Kinesin-3 motors induce frequent microtubule bending in multi-motor gliding assay. A Cartoon representation of constitutively active kinesin-3 motors influence significant microtubule bending in multi-motor gliding assay in vitro compared to kinesin-1 motor. B Bar graph indicating the percent MT bending in multi-motor gliding assay with constitutively active kinesin-3 and kinesin-1 motors. MTs ≤ 20 μm were considered for bending analysis. n values represent number of bending events analyzed for angle measurement. Values from three independent experiments
