The intracellular transport functions of KIFs are fundamentally important for a variety of cellular functions, including mitotic and meiotic division, motility\/migration, hormone and neurotransmitter release, and differentiation (1-4). Disruptions to KIF-mediated intracellular transport have been linked with a variety of pathologies, ranging from tumorigenesis to defects in higher order brain function such as learning and memory (4-6). KIF5 consists of three family members referred to as KIF5A, KIF5B, and KIF5C (7). KIF5A and KIF5C are specifically expressed in neurons whereas KIF5B is expressed ubiquitously (7-10). Targeted disruption of the gene resulted in embryonic lethality (11). These and other studies demonstrate that KIF5B plays an important role in the localization and distribution of major organelles, including the mitochondria and lysosome, and can contribute to autophagy (11-13). In addition, gene rearrangements involving KIF5B fusions to ALK and RET have been identified as drivers for lung cancer and other malignancies (14-18).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nConventional kinesin heavy chain; epididymis secretory protein Li 61; HEL-S-61; KIF5B; kinesin 1 (110-120kD); kinesin family member 5B; kinesin heavy chain; Kinesin-1 heavy chain; KINH; KNS; KNS1; Ubiquitous kinesin heavy chain; UKHC\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 110\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799552610473,"sku":"47610S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-47610s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
