Figure 5.19 A Motor Protein Pulls Vesicles along Microtubules (A) Kinesin delivers vesicles to various parts of the cell by moving along microtubule “railroad tracks.” (B) A vesicle is pulled by kinesin along a microtubule in the protist Dictyostelium. The time sequence, with half-second intervals, is shown by the color changes from purple to blue.
