Modulation of kinesin binding by the C-termini of tubulin.
The flexible tubulin C-terminal tails (CTTs) have recently been implicated in the walking mechanism of dynein and kinesin. To address their role in the case of conventional kinesin, we examined the structure of kinesin-microtubule (MT) complexes before and after CTT cleavage by subtilisin. Our results show that the CTTs directly modulate the motor-tubulin interface and the binding properties of...
متن کاملInteraction between the C termini of Alg13 and Alg14 mediates formation of the active UDP-N-acetylglucosamine transferase complex.
The second step of eukaryotic N-linked glycosylation in endoplasmic reticulum is catalyzed by an UDP-N-acetylglucosamine transferase that is comprised of two subunits, Alg13 and Alg14. The interaction between Alg13 and 14 is crucial for UDP-GlcNAc transferase activity, so formation of the Alg13/14 complex is likely to play a key role in the regulation of N-glycosylation. Using a combination of ...
متن کاملThe Subfamily-Specific Interaction between Kv2.1 and Kv6.4 Subunits Is Determined by Interactions between the N- and C-termini
The "silent" voltage-gated potassium (KvS) channel subunit Kv6.4 does not form electrically functional homotetramers at the plasma membrane but assembles with Kv2.1 subunits, generating functional Kv2.1/Kv6.4 heterotetramers. The N-terminal T1 domain determines the subfamily-specific assembly of Kv1-4 subunits by preventing interactions between subunits that belong to different subfamilies. For...
متن کاملRoles of the N- and C-termini of GLUT4 in endocytosis.
In insulin target cells, the predominantly expressed glucose transporter isoform GLUT4 recycles between distinct intracellular compartments and the plasma membrane. To characterize putative targeting signals within GLUT4 in a physiologically relevant cell type, we have analyzed the trafficking of hemagglutinin (HA)-epitope-tagged GLUT4 mutants in transiently transfected primary rat adipose cell...
متن کاملThe highly processive DNA polymerase of bacteriophage T5. Role of the unique N and C termini.
The DNA polymerase encoded by bacteriophage T5 has been reported previously to be processive and to catalyze extensive strand displacement synthesis. The enzyme, purified from phage-infected cells, did not require accessory proteins for these activities. Although T5 DNA polymerase shares extensive sequence homology with Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I and T7 DNA polymerase, it contains unique...
