Also known as: SAX2; LTXS1; SATX2; SPAX2; SPG58
Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the kinesin-like protein family. The family members are microtubule-dependent molecular motors that transport organelles within cells and move chromosomes during cell division. Mutations in this gene are a cause of spastic ataxia 2, autosomal recessive. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

The authors analyze the previously identified kinesin inhibitor binding sites and identify features of AZ82 that favor binding to one of the sites, the alpha4/alpha6 site. This selectivity can be explained by unique structural features of the KIFC1 alpha4/alpha6 binding site.
Title: Structural basis of small molecule ATPase inhibition of a human mitotic kinesin motor protein.
Study demonstrates that PTPN21 activates KIF1C by binding to the stalk region. This function does not require catalytic activity of the phosphatase, and its N-terminal FERM domain alone is sufficient to stimulate the transport of KIF1C cargoes in cells as well as increasing the landing rate of KIF1C on microtubules in vitro. The cargo adapter Hook3 binds KIF1C in the same region and activates KIF1C in a similar way.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
