摘要
We used kinesin motor protein and its microtubule track to transport multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) on engineered surfaces. Using a flow chamber, surface-adsorbed kinesins are shown to transport red-labeled microtubules loaded with green cargos of MWNTs. Our results establish a platform for assembling individually addressable MWNT nanostructures using microtubule templates.
