A novel strategy to visualize vesicle‐bound kinesins reveals the diversity of kinesin‐mediated transport

open access: yesTraffic : the International Journal of Intracellular Transport, 2019
In mammals, 15 to 20 kinesins are thought to mediate vesicle transport. Little is known about the identity of vesicles moved by each kinesin or the functional significance of such diversity.

Jump-starting kinesin [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2007
When it is not actively transporting cargo, conventional Kinesin-1 is present in the cytoplasm in a folded conformation that cannot interact effectively with microtubules (MTs). Two important and largely unexplored aspects of kinesin regulation are how it is converted to an active species when bound to cargo and the related issue of how kinesin ...

Kinesin regulation by Salmonella [PDF]

open access: yesVirulence, 2011
As the result of their adaptation to the host, intracellular pathogens have evolved mechanisms to usurp and take the control of eukaryotic processes. In the case of Salmonella, this is in part achieved through the cytoplasmic translocation of bacterial effectors capable of acting on the biology of infected cells.

Kinesin-14: the roots of reversal

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2010
Kinesin-14 motor proteins step towards microtubule minus ends, in the opposite direction to other kinesins. Work on the still-enigmatic kinesin-14 mechanism published in BMC Structural Biology shows that the carboxyl terminus of the motor head undergoes ...

Kinesin-5 inhibitor resistance is driven by kinesin-12 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2016
The microtubule (MT) cytoskeleton bipolarizes at the onset of mitosis to form the spindle. In animal cells, the kinesin-5 Eg5 primarily drives this reorganization by actively sliding MTs apart. Its primacy during spindle assembly renders Eg5 essential for mitotic progression, demonstrated by the lethal effects of kinesin-5/Eg5 inhibitors (K5Is ...

Role of kinesins in directed adenovirus transport and cytoplasmic exploration

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2018
Many viruses, including adenovirus, exhibit bidirectional transport along microtubules following cell entry. Cytoplasmic dynein is responsible for microtubule minus end transport of adenovirus capsids after endosomal escape.

Arl3 and RP2 regulate the trafficking of ciliary tip kinesins

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2017
Ciliary trafficking defects are the underlying cause of many ciliopathies, including Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP). Anterograde intraflagellar transport (IFT) is mediated by kinesin motor proteins; however, the function of the homodimeric Kif17 motor in ...

Central spindle proteins and mitotic kinesins are direct transcriptional targets of MuvB, B-MYB and FOXM1 in breast cancer cell lines and are potential targets for therapy

open access: yesOncoTarget, 2017
The MuvB multiprotein complex, together with B-MYB and FOXM1 (MMB-FOXM1), plays an essential role in cell cycle progression by regulating the transcription of genes required for mitosis and cytokinesis.

Patient‐specific pharmacogenomics demonstrates xCT as predictive therapeutic target in colon cancer with possible implications in tumor connectivity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates transcriptomic profiling of matched tumor and healthy tissues from 32 colorectal cancer patients with functional validation in patient‐derived organoids, revealing dysregulated metabolic programs driven by overexpressed xCT (SLC7A11) and SLC3A2, identifying an oncogenic cystine/glutamate transporter signature linked to ...
