  1. For ATPase assays, two technical replicates were averaged to obtain the values for each biological replicate (n value). For in vitro motility, mean values of at least 30 motile filaments are included for each biological replicate (n value). Standard deviations are indicated for each mean. Statistical significance was determined using Student’s t test. Significant differences were assumed for P < 0.05 (*** = P < 0.001, **** = P < 0.0001)
