Disease relevance of ATK1

  • A truncated KatC polypeptide (KatC(207-754)), which includes the carboxyl-terminal region of KatC, was expressed in Escherichia coli and was shown to possess microtubule-stimulated ATPase activity and to bind to microtubules in an ATP-sensitive manner, both of which are characteristics of kinesin and kinesin-like proteins [1].

Associations of ATK1 with chemical compounds

  • Unlike kinesin, cosedimentation of eIF-(iso)4F with MTs was neither reduced by MgATP nor enhanced by adenosine 5'-[gamma-imido]triphosphate [13].
 

Physical interactions of ATK1

  • A homolog of PKCBP from Arabidopsis (AKCBP) showed identical structural organization indicating that kinesin heavy chains that bind to calmodulin are likely to exist in other plants [14].
 

Regulatory relationships of ATK1

  • Molecular analysis reveals that the HINKEL gene encodes a plant-specific kinesin-related protein with a putative N-terminal motor domain and is expressed in a cell cycle-dependent manner similar to the KNOLLE gene [15].
  • Functional studies with ZWICHEL ( ZWI ), which encodes a Ca(2+)-calmodulin-regulated kinesin, have shown its involvement in trichome morphogenesis and cell division [16].
  • A novel calcium/calmodulin-regulated kinesin-like protein is highly conserved between monocots and dicots [17].
