Abstract:ABSTRACTTechnologies that manipulate and augment the transport of vesicles and organelles by motor proteins along microtubules offer new routes to understanding its mechanistic basis, and could lead to therapeutics. Many cargoes for the kinesin-1 family of microtubule motors utilize adaptor proteins that harbor linear peptide motifs that are recognized by the tetratricopeptide repeats of kinesin light chains (KLCTPRs). These motifs bind with micromolar affi… Show more
