Function Moving cargo usually from the center of the cell to the periphery. Involved in cell replication. Disease Charcot Marie Tooth (CMT) Structural highlights Scene #1: Kinesin structure is composed of eight anti-parallel B sheets surrounded by three alpha helices on either side Alpha-beta structure Scene #2: This is the ATP binding site. Upon the binding of phosphate to ADP, ATP is formed giving Kinesin the energy needed to move the cargo one step a head to its destination ATP-binding site Scene #3: Scene #4: This is a sample scene created with SAT to color by Group, and another to make a transparent representation of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
