Kinesins
Kinesins
Kinesins are a large family of proteins with diverse
structures. Mammalian cells have at least 40 different
kinesin genes.
The best studied is referred to as conventional kinesin,
kinesin I, or simply kinesin.
Some are referred to as kinesin-related proteins (KRPs).
Kinesin I has a structure analogous to but distinct from
that of myosin.
There are 2 copies each of a heavy chain and a light chain.

So, how does it all work together?
Fast Axonal Transport: 100-400 mm/day
Purpose: Transport organelles such as mitochondira and vesicles
carrying SV and plasma membrane proteins to the nerve terminal.
Also retrograde movement of vesicles containing neurotrophic factors
back to the cell body.
Dyneins
The dynein microtubule motor.
Biochim Biophys Acta. 2000. 1496:60-75.

The best studied is referred to as conventional kinesin, kinesin I, or simply kinesin. Some are referred to as kinesin-related proteins (KRPs). Kinesin I has a structure analogous to but distinct from that of myosin. There are 2 copies each of a heavy chain and a light chain.

  1. Rabies does not wait, replicate in the cell body immediately and come back..
  2. Figure 4 | Kinesin superfamily proteins (KIFs) bind to cargoes through adaptor or scaffolding protein complexes. a | KIF13A binds to β1-adaptin of the AP1 (adaptor protein 1) adaptor complex and the AP1 adaptor complex binds to the mannose-6-phosphate receptor (M6PR)80. The AP1 adaptor complex comprises the β1-, γ-, 1- and δ1-adaptin subunits. β1-adaptin has three domains — trunk, hinge and ear — and the carboxy (C)-terminal tail of KIF13A binds to the ear domain. b | the C-terminal tail of KIF17 binds to one of the PDZ domains of LIN10 (Munc18-interacting protein, MINT1)65. LIN10, LIN2 (CASK, calcium/calmodulin dependent serine protein kinase) and LIN7 (VELIS, vertebrate LIN7 homologue/MALS, mammalian LIN7 protein), all have PDZ domains and interact through regions other than the PDZ domains to form a tripartite scaffolding protein complex, which binds to the NR2B subunit of NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors.
  3. Figure 3 | Kinesin superfamily proteins (KIFs) and cargoes for axonal and dendritic transport. a | A typical neuron, extending several dendrites (left) and a single thin axon (right) from the cell body. In the axon, microtubules are unipolar, with the plus ends pointing towards the synaptic terminal. Microtubules form special bundles at the initial segment, which might serve as the cue for axonal transport. Tubulovesicular organelles are transported anterogradely along microtubules by KIFs. In the growth cone of an axon collateral, KIF2A controls microtubule dynamics and the extension of collaterals. Rough endoplasmic reticula are abundant in most parts of the cell body, except for the axon hillock. Dendrites contain some rough endoplasmic reticlula. Microtubules have mixed polarity in proximal dendrites, but are unipolar in distal dendrites, with the plus end pointing away from the cell body. Membranous organelles and RNA-containing granules are transported along microtubules by KIFs. b | KIF5 transports vesicles containing APP (amyloid precursor protien) and APOER2 (apolipoprotein E receptor 2) by interacting with KLC (kinesin light chain)46,47,51,96,97. Mitochondria are transported by KIF5 and KIF1Bα27,45. KIF3 transports vesicles associated with fodrin57. KIF1A and KIF1Bβboth transport synaptic vesicle precursors26,31,32. JIPs, scaffolding proteins of the c-Jun amino (N)-terminal kinase (JNK) signalling pathway; KAP3, kinesin superfamily-associated protein 3. c | In dendrites, KIF5 transports vesicles containing AMPA (α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid) receptors through an interaction between KIF5 and GRIP1 (glutamate receptor-interacting protein 1)68. RNA-containing granules are also transported by interacting directly with KIF5 (REF. 77). KIF17 transports vesicles containing NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptors by interacting through the LIN complex, a tripartite protein complex containing mammalian homologues of the Caenhorhabditis elegans presynaptic density zone (PDZ) proteins LIN-2, LIN-7 and LIN-1065.
  4. Different general proposed mechanisms for attachment of kinesin motors to 'cargos'. Comparable mechanisms have also been proposed for dynein motors, but, for simplicity, only kinesins are shown. Motor proteins might link directly to transmembrane proteins, to scaffold proteins that link to transmembrane proteins, to proteinaceous raft complexes that bind to other protein cargos or possibly directly to other cytoskeletal filaments. How the dynactin complex, which in some cases might link dynein to spectrin networks on vesicles, fits into these mechanisms is unclear. See main text for additional details.

(a) Model of a generic two-headed dynein particle indicating the general location of various structural and functional domains described in the text. (b) Map of the dynein heavy chain identifying the segments of these large proteins involved in binding the IC/LC complex, ATP and microtubules.
