An essential farnesylated kinesin in Trypanosoma brucei.
Kinesins are a family of motor proteins conserved throughout eukaryotes. In our present study we characterize a novel kinesin, Kinesin(CaaX), orthologs of which are only found in the kinetoplastids and not other eukaryotes. Kinesin(CaaX) has the CVIM amino acids at the C-terminus, and CVIM was previ...
