Abstract

Binding of motor proteins to cellular cargoes is regulated by adaptor proteins. HAP1 and GRIP1 are kinesin-1 adaptors that have been implicated individually in the transport of vesicular cargoes in the dendrites of neurons. We find that HAP1a and GRIP1 form a protein-complex in the brain, and co-operate to activate kinesin-1 subunit KIF5C in vitro. Based upon this co-operative activation of kinesin-1, we propose a modification to the kinesin activation model that incorporates stabilisation of the central hinge region known to be critical to autoinhibition of kinesin-1.
