Abstract excerpt
Kinesin-1 is a heterotetramer composed of kinesin heavy chain (KHC) and kinesin light chain (KLC). The Caenorhabditis elegans genome has a single KHC, encoded by the unc-116 gene, and two KLCs, encoded by the klc-1 and klc-2 genes. We show here that UNC-116/KHC and KLC-2 form a complex orthologous to conventional kinesin-1. KLC-2 also binds UNC-16, the C. elegans JIP3/JSAP1 JNK-signaling scaffold protein, and the...
