Identification and classification of 16 new kinesin superfamily (KIF) proteins in mouse genome

Nakagawa, Terunaga, Tanaka, Yosuke, Matsuoka, Eiji, Kondo, Satoru, Okada, Yasushi, Noda, Yasuko, ...

KIF (kinesin superfamily) proteins are microtubule-dependent molecular motors that play important roles in intracellular transport and cell division. The extent to which KIFs are involved in various...

Molecular Motor KIF1C Is Not Essential for Mouse Survival and Motor-Dependent Retrograde Golgi Apparatus-to-Endoplasmic Reticulum Transport

Nakajima, Kazuo, Takei, Yosuke, Tanaka, Yosuke, Nakagawa, Terunaga, Nakata, Takao, Noda, Yasuko, ...

KIF1C is a new member of the kinesin superfamily of proteins (KIFs), which act as microtubule-based molecular motors involved in intracellular transport. We cloned full-length mouse kif1C cDNA, which...

Left-Right Asymmetry and Kinesin Superfamily Protein KIF3A: New Insights in Determination of Laterality and Mesoderm Induction by kif3A−/− Mice Analysis

Takeda, Sen, Yonekawa, Yoshiaki, Tanaka, Yosuke, Okada, Yasushi, Nonaka, Shigenori, Hirokawa, Nobutaka

KIF3A is a classical member of the kinesin superfamily proteins (KIFs), ubiquitously expressed although predominantly in neural tissues, and which forms a heterotrimeric KIF3 complex with KIF3B or...

Role of KIFC3 motor protein in Golgi positioning and integration

Xu, Ying, Takeda, Sen, Nakata, Takao, Noda, Yasuko, Tanaka, Yosuke, Hirokawa, Nobutaka

KIFC3, a microtubule (MT) minus end–directed kinesin superfamily protein, is expressed abundantly and is associated with the Golgi apparatus in adrenocortical cells. We report here that disruption...

Left–Right Determination: Involvement of Molecular Motor KIF3, Cilia, and Nodal Flow

Hirokawa, Nobutaka, Tanaka, Yosuke, Okada, Yasushi

Mammalian left–right determination is a good example for how multiple cell biological processes coordinate in the formation of a basic body plan. The leftward movement of fluid at the ventral node,...
