The phrase "bidirectional movement" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where movement occurs in two opposite directions, such as in physics, transportation, or communication.
Example: "The bidirectional movement of the train allows it to efficiently serve both ends of the route."
Alternatives: "two-way movement" or "reciprocal movement."
Toyoshima, Y. Y., Toyoshima, C. & Spudich, J. A. Bidirectional movement of actin filaments along tracks of myosin heads.
The model shows how zero turning radius is achieved with only bidirectional movement.
It uses numerous copies of at least three MT-binding proteins to generate bidirectional movement.
Next steps: The devices are just prototypes for now, but they show it's possible for 3-D-printed materials to detect bidirectional movement and store data.
Adaptor proteins, regulatory molecules and local signaling pathways provide additional layers of specificity and control over bidirectional movement, polarized transport and cargo delivery.
The nanoscale organization of these proteins within the kinetochore plays an important role in shaping the mechanisms that drive persistent, bidirectional movement of the kinetochore.
Video microscopy analyses of axons in vitro show that subtypes of vesicular organelles display different kinetic behaviors ranging from very rapid, relatively continuous anterograde and retrograde movements that span long distances to infrequent short range bidirectional movements separated by short or very long pauses [41], [42].
This distinction presumably depends on the different distribution of MTs, concentrated in the central cytoplasm and responsible for fast long-range bidirectional movements, relative to AFs, predominant at the cell periphery and responsible for local short-range movements (7, 33).
Such bidirectional movements are typical of many organelles (Vale et al., 1992) and probably reflect an alternating cycle of recruitment or activation of plus-end directed kinesin, and minus-end directed dynein motors on the SCV.
MS2-GFP has also been used to image CamKIIα mRNA in the dendrites of cultured neurons and labels particles that show similar bidirectional movements to osk mRNA (Rook et al., 2000; Kanai et al., 2004).
Whilst we previously favoured bidirectional RNP movement representing diffusive movement of dynein-dynactin interspersed with bouts of active transport in each direction (as reported for individual mammalian dynein-dynactin complexes by Ross et al. 2006, Nat Cell Biol (PMID 16715075)), our new data indicate that even the longest movements of bidirectional RNPs are due to passive diffusion.
