| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Main accomplishment follows.
1) Functions and regulation of KIFs in cellular level and in memory and learning. :
a) KIF17 regulates transcription of NR2B and KIF17 to enhance memory and learning. b) KIF17 unloads cargo containing NR2B by phosphorylation of KIF17 tail domain by CaMKIIa and regulatesmemory and learning. c) KIF1A is essential for hippocampal synaptogenesis and learning enhancement in an enriched environment. d) KIF3A loads cargo vesicles containing N cadherin via the phosphorylation by PKA and CaMKIIa by the activity dependent mechanism.
2) The mechanism of directional transport, axon vs dentrites: a) Preferential binding of KIF5 motor domain to GTP-tubulin -rich microtubules in the axon underlies polarlized cargo transport.
3) Function of KIFs at the whole body level and its relationship with diseases.
a) KIF5A is essential for GABA_A receptor transport and KIF5A deletion causes epilepsy. b) KIF13A controls anxiety by transporting the serotonin type 1A receptor. c) KIF19A is a microtubule-depolymerizing kinesin for ciliary length control and its deletion causes hydrocephalus and female infertility.
4) New functions of KIFs as a factor in signaling cascades.
a) Antioxidant signaling involving KIF12 is an intracellular target of nutrition excess in pancreatic beta cells.
