Why Is It Necessary That Kinesin Have Two Head Domains To Function? [Solved]

After initial binding, kinesin is able to ‘walk’ along the microtubule without dissociating. It is thought that a two- headed motor is necessary for this processive behaviour because at each time point, the dimeric molecule needs to remain tethered to the microtubule through one head.
