Abstract excerpt
Neuronal morphogenesis is regulated by intracellular transport and cytoskeletal dynamics. Kinesin superfamily proteins (KIFs), or kinesins, function as molecular motors for intracellular transport and as regulators of the microtubule cytoskeleton, making them essential for neuronal development. Caenorhabditis elegans has been widely used as a model organism to study neuronal morphogenesis. Due to the critical...
