This article provides information about the upcoming third Japan-U.S. symposium on motor proteins and associated single-molecule biophysics, which will be held during the 61st Annual Meeting of the Biophysical Society of Japan. The symposium aims to facilitate collaboration and idea exchange between researchers from Japan and the U.S. in the field of microtubule-based motility and motor proteins. It will cover topics such as the molecular properties and regulatory mechanisms of motors, their role in plant cells, and the transport of alphaherpesviruses in neurons. The symposium will feature talks by experts in the field and is expected to advance research in this area. Additionally, the document includes a list of scientific articles related to microtubule-based transport and organelle movement within cells, covering various aspects of the field including protein identification, vortex lattices, competition between motor proteins, and the role of kinesins and dyneins in intracellular transport, neurological disorders, and viral infection. These references are valuable resources for researchers studying these topics. [Extracted from the article]
