Motor Protein Processivity

Motor Protein Processivity is the measure of the average number of consecutive catalytic cycles a motor protein undergoes along a cytoskeletal filament before dissociating, distinguishing it from simple binding affinity by quantifying the sustained movement capacity inherent to microtubule-based transport systems.
