Title :

Molecular Machines of Life

Description :

Proteasome: Breaking down unneeded proteins is accomplished by the orderly action of several multiprotein complexes. At the heart of this process is a multiprotein complex called the proteasome. Dynein Complex: An entirely different class of molecular machines functions as motors, converting chemical energy into mechanical motion, both linear and rotary. The dynein motor, a cellular complex believed to be composed of 12 distinct protein parts, performs fundamental transportation tasks critical to the cell; defects in its structure can prove fatal.
