Biochem/physiol Actions

Kinesore is a cell penetrant and potent activator of kinesin-1 that induces kinesin light chain tetratricopeptide repeat domain-dependent kinesin-1 activation in the absence of organelle cargo-adaptor engagement. It inhibits kinesin-1 interaction with peptide fragment of organelle-specific cargo adaptors. Kinesore induces kinesin light chain conformational switch that causes remodeling of the microtubule network in cells.

The microtubule motor kinesin-1 interacts via its cargo-binding domain with both microtubules and organelles, and hence plays an important role in controlling organelle transport and microtubule dynamics. In the absence of cargo, kinesin-1 is found in an autoinhibited conformation. The

The principal cause of death in cancer patients is metastasis, which remains an unresolved problem. Conventionally, metastatic dissemination is linked to actomyosin-driven cell locomotion. However, the locomotion of cancer cells often does not strictly line up with the measured actomyosin

RNA molecules are localized to specific subcellular regions through interactions between RNA regulatory elements and RNA binding proteins (RBPs). Generally, our knowledge of the mechanistic details behind the localization of a given RNA is restricted to a particular cell type.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
