About

Kohji Ito is a Professor at Chiba University in Japan. His research focuses on the motility mechanisms driven by myosins in various plant species, as evidenced by his recent articles on the functional characterization of calmodulin-like proteins and the structural dynamics of fast-moving myosins. He has made significant contributions to understanding the role of membrane-bound myosins and their impact on cellular processes, including cytoplasmic streaming and plant growth enhancement.
