Nonsense mutations release ribosomes within the RNA of a multigene operon, though, enabling rho to terminate transcription prematurely and prevent expression of distal genes in the transcription unit even though their open reading frames contained wild-type sequences.

Kinesin-1  (similar to myosin II)

Head domain at the N-terminus of the heavy chain  

Stalk domain forms a long coiled-coil

Tail domain at C-terminus that attaches to cargo
