Anti-KIF17 antibody produced in rabbit

KIF17 belongs to the functionally diverse subgroup of the kinesin superfamily characterized by a N-terminal motor domain. KIF17 is specifically expressed in the brain, abundantly present in the gray matter, particularly in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex, but not in the white matter such as the optic nerve. KIF17, a dendritic specific motor protein, is localized in dendrites of pyramidal neurons, but not in axons or nuclei of the cerebral cortex.

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 589-606 of mouse KIF17 conjugated to KLH.

Anti-KIF17 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunofluorescence and immunoblotting.

The kinesin superfamily of proteins (KIFs) consists of a class of microtubule-dependent motors. They play a major role in many cellular and developmental functions. The kinesin proteins are involved in organelle transport and are primarily associated with anterograde transport of vesicles and organelles in neurons, epithelial cells, and melanosomes with bidirectional transport of mitochondria. They also mediate transport between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi complex. In neurons, kinesin motors conduct vesicular transport, such as of synaptic vesicle components to axons and of neurotransmitter receptors to dendrites. KIF17 conveys (in dendrites) specific cargo vesicles that contain the glutamate receptor NR2B subunit, thus KIF17 functions as the sorting machinery for NR2B.
