Anchoring geometry is a significant factor in determining the direction of kinesin-14 motility on microtubules by Masahiko Yamagishi, Rieko Sumiyoshi, Douglas R. Drummond, Junichiro Yajima

“…Abstract Kinesin-14 microtubule-based motors have an N-terminal tail attaching the catalytic core to its load and usually move towards microtubule minus ends, whilst most other kinesins have a C-terminal tail and move towards plus ends. …”

The architecture of kinesin-3 KLP-6 reveals a multilevel-lockdown mechanism for autoinhibition by Wenjuan Wang, Jinqi Ren, Weiye Song, Yong Zhang, Wei Feng

“…Autoinhibition ensures the proper spatiotemporal control of the kinesin-3 motor activity. Here, the authors present the full-length structure of kinesin-3 KLP-6 in an autoinhibited state and observe that all the internal domains entwine around the motor domain via a multilevel-lockdown mechanism.…”
