KIF17 Antibody

1. The rate of transport is set by an equilibrium between a faster state, where only kinesin family member 17 protein (KIF17) motors move the train, and a slower state, where at least one kinesin family member 3A/B protein (KIF3AB) motor on the train remains active in transport. PMID: 28761002
2. In mammalian cells, KIF17 is dispensable for ciliogenesis and IFT-B trafficking but requires IFT-B, as well as its NLS, for its ciliary entry across the permeability barrier located at the ciliary base. PMID: 28077622
3. The first evidence of an interaction between septins and a nonmitotic kinesin is provided and it is suggested that SEPT9 modulates the interactions of KIF17 with membrane cargo. PMID: 26823018
4. KIF17 can modify RhoA-GTPase signaling to influence junctional actin and the stability of the apical junctional complex of epithelial cells. PMID: 26759174
5. Expression of KIF17 in schizophrenic postmortem brains was significantly lower than controls. Both genotypic distribution and allelic frequency of rs2296225 polymorphism were significantly different between the chronic schizophrenia subjects and controls. PMID: 26421900
6. although EB1 and KIF17-Tail may coordinate KIF17 catalytic activity, our data reveal a novel and direct role for KIF17 in regulating MT dynamics. PMID: 24072717
7. This study suggested that disruption of KIF17, although rare, could result in a schizophrenia phenotype and emphasize the possible involvement of rare de novo mutations in this disorder. PMID: 20646681
8. Depletion of KIF17 from cells growing in three-dimensional matrices results in aberrant epithelial cysts that fail to generate a single central lumen and to polarize apical markers. PMID: 20696710
9. Data show that the homodimeric kinesin-2 motor KIF17 is kept in an inactive state in the absence of cargo, and define two molecular mechanisms that contribute to autoinhibition of KIF17. PMID: 20530208
10. The intense placental expression of KIFC1 in syncytiotrophoblast and KIF17 in vascular endothelium suggests that both proteins might be important in a cargo-transport system. KIFC1 and KIF17 expression are increased of both in preeclamptia and diabetes. PMID: 19679349
11. KIF17b serves as a molecular motor component of a TB-RBP-mouse ribonucleoprotein complex transporting a group of specific CREM-regulated mRNAs. PMID: 14673085
