How do condensate material properties encode function? Combining experiments and modeling, we show that condensate interfaces can act as hubs for microtubule (MT) assembly, with MT assembly dynamics tuned by viscoelasticity.

Kinesin is one of the body’s smallest transport systems: a molecular motor that walks along microscopic tracks inside your cells, carrying cargo like nutrients, enzymes, and signaling molecules to where they’re needed.
🟡 Moves energy supplies and building materials within cells
🟡 Powers nerve function by transporting molecules along axons
🟡 Keeps cell division, repair, and communication running smoothly
Without kinesin, cells would lose their internal delivery network. Signals in the brain would slow, repair processes would stall, and energy wouldn’t reach where it’s needed.
Kinesin turns chemistry into motion. Watching it “walk” across microtubules reveals how life maintains order and flow at the molecular level, proof that even the smallest engines inside us keep everything moving.
