Myosin X forms an antiparallel dimer and moves processively on actin bundles. How the antiparallel dimer affects the stepping mechanism of myosin X remains elusive. Here, we generated several chimeras using domains of myosin V and X and performed single-molecule motility assays. We found that the chimera containing the motor domain from myosin V and the lever arm and antiparallel coiled-coil domain from myosin X has multiple forward step sizes and moves processively, similar to full-length myosin X. The chimera containing the motor domain and lever arm from myosin X and the parallel coiled-coil from myosin V takes steps of ∼40 nm at lower ATP concentrations but was nonprocessive at higher ATP concentrations. Furthermore, mutant myosin X with four mutations in the antiparallel coiled-coil domain failed to dimerize and was nonprocessive. These results imply that the antiparallel coiled-coil domain is necessary for multiple forward step sizes of myosin X.
