    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro817 of human KIF5A protein.

    Background

    Kinesin superfamily proteins (KIFs) are molecular motors that drive directional, microtubule-dependent intracellular transport of membrane-bound organelles and other macromolecules (e.g., proteins, nucleic acids). The intracellular transport functions of KIFs are fundamentally important for various cellular functions, including mitotic and meiotic division, motility/migration, hormone and neurotransmitter release, and differentiation (1-4). Disruptions to KIF-mediated intracellular transport have been linked with various pathologies, ranging from tumorigenesis to defects in higher-order brain functions such as learning and memory (4-6).

    KIF5 consists of three family members: KIF5A, KIF5B, and KIF5C (7). KIF5A and KIF5C are specifically expressed in neurons, whereas KIF5B is expressed ubiquitously (7-10). KIF5A has recently also been found to be expressed in astrocyte processes and mutations of the protein have been linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) (11-13).
