KIF1Bβ is a kinesin-3 family anterograde motor protein essential for neuronal development, viability, and function. KIF1Bβ mutations have previously been reported in a limited number of pedigrees of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A (CMT2A) neuropathy. However, the gene responsible for CMT2A is still controversial, and the mechanism of pathogenesis remains elusive. In this study, we show that the receptor tyrosine kinase IGF1R is a new direct binding partner of KIF1Bβ, and its binding and transport is specifically impaired by the Y1087C mutation of KIF1Bβ, which we detected in hereditary neuropathic patients. The axonal outgrowth and IGF-I signaling of Kif1b-/- neurons were significantly impaired, consistent with decreased surface IGF1R expression. The complementary capacity of KIF1Bβ-Y1087C of these phenotypes was significantly impaired, but the binding capacity to synaptic vesicle precursors was not affected. These data have supported the relevance of KIF1Bβ in IGF1R transport, which may give new clue to the neuropathic pathogenesis.

Documented on May 5,2022.Tool that predicts interactions between transcription factors and their regulated genes from binding motifs. Understanding vertebrate development requires unraveling the cis-regulatory architecture of gene regulation. PRISM provides accurate genome-wide computational predictions of transcription factor binding sites for the human and mouse genomes, and integrates the predictions with GREAT to provide functional biological context. Together, accurate computational binding site prediction and GREAT produce for each transcription factor: 1. putative binding sites, 2. putative target genes, 3. putative biological roles of the transcription factor, and 4. putative cis-regulatory elements through which the factor regulates each target in each functional role.
