Description
Description: Microtubule-dependent motor required for normal distribution of mitochondria and lysosomes. Can induce formation of neurite-like membrane protrusions in non-neuronal cells in a ZFYVE27-dependent manner (By similarity). Regulates centrosome and nuclear positioning during mitotic entry. During the G2 phase of the cell cycle in a BICD2-dependent manner, antagonizes dynein function and drives the separation of nuclei and centrosomes (PubMed:20386726).
Subunit Structure: Oligomer composed of two heavy chains and two light chains. Interacts with GRIP1 and PPP1R42 (By similarity). Interacts with SYBU (PubMed:15459722). Interacts with JAKMIP1 (PubMed:17532644). Interacts with PLEKHM2 (PubMed:15905402). Interacts with ECPAS (PubMed:20682791). Interacts with ZFYVE27 (By similarity). Found in a complex with OGT, RHOT1, RHOT2 and TRAK1 (PubMed:24995978).
Similarity: Composed of three structural domains: a large globular N-terminal domain which is responsible for the motor activity of kinesin (it hydrolyzes ATP and binds microtubule), a central alpha-helical coiled coil domain that mediates the heavy chain dimerization; and a small globular C-terminal domain which interacts with other proteins (such as the kinesin light chains), vesicles and membranous organelles. Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family. Kinesin subfamily
