The power stroke of a motor protein : The motor protein EF‐G generates a power stroke of 89 pN during ribosome translocation (see picture). This mechanical force is obtained by measuring the force‐induced dissociation of a series of DNA–mRNA duplexes. The dissociation is indicated by a decrease in magnetic signal.
