The authors observed that pinosomes in cultured rat basophilic leukemia cells trigger a short-term burst of directed actin polymerization to form 'comet tails', which propel them away from the plasma membrane. This mechanism has been described for the intracellular movement of certain bacteria and viruses but this is the first demonstration that these microorganisms subvert normal organelle transport mechanisms.

Targeted disruption of the major isoform of cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain results in the dispersion of lysosomes and the Golgi complex in mouse blastocysts. This paper is in apparent contradiction with Vaisberg et al. [46] who used antibody injection and immunofluorescence experiments to demonstrate that Golgi complex organization requires a different dynein isoform, DHC2.

Characterization of KIF1C, a new kinesin-like protein involved in vesicle transport from the Golgi apparatus to the endoplasmic reticulum. J Biol Chem. 273:1998;20267-20275. KIF1C is a monomeric kinesin-related protein of the Unc-104 subfamily localized to the Golgi apparatus. It is phosphorylated on a tyrosine residue and a dominant-negative mutation in a gene encoding KIF1C prevents transport of membranes from the Golgi to the endoplasmic reticulum in cells treated with Brefeldin A.

Using the yeast two-hybrid system the authors identified a new kinesin-like protein, Rabkinesin-6, that interacts with the GTP-bound form of Rab-6 and is likely to participate in regulated intra-Golgi protein traffic along microtubules.

Role of Xklp3, a subunit of the Xenopus kinesin II heterotrimeric complex, in membrane transport between the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus. J Cell Biol. 143:1998;1559-1573. The gene encoding Xklp3, the 95 kDa subunit of Xenopus kinesin-II, was cloned and the protein localized by immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy to the tubovesicular compartment intermediate between the Golgi apparatus and the endoplasmic reticulum. Cells expressing a transgene encoding truncated 'headless' Xklp3 exhibit defects in protein transport from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi.
13. •], Xklp3 was shown to be the microtubule motor that drives melanosome dispersion in melanophores. Conventional kinesin was conclusively shown not to be involved in this process.

On the basis of time-lapse observations of cultured melanocytes, the authors suggest that microtubules are involved in long-range transport of melanosomes whereas myosin V serves to anchor them to actin filaments at the cell periphery and in dendritic processes.

Opposing motor activities of dynein and kinesin determine retention and transport of MHC class II-containing compartments. J Cell Sci. 112:1999;785-795. Early lysosomes containing green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged major histocompatibility complex (MHC) II molecules are transported bidirectionally along microtubules by conventional kinesin and cytoplasmic dynein. The protein kinase inhibitor staurosporine induced redistribution of these organelles to the cell periphery, suggesting that their transport is regulated by phosphorylation.

Endoplasmic-reticulum-derived vesicles from squid axoplasm can move on actin filaments in vitro. Myosin V is found on these vesicles and antibodies against this motor inhibit their motility.

This study demonstrates the direct interaction between microtubules and actin filaments in Xenopus egg extracts. F-actin appears to progressively redistribute towards microtubule plus-ends in fixed time points, suggesting a possible active transport mechanism.

J Cell Biol. 143:1998;159-170. The authors describe vimentin-containing aggregates that move along microtubules in spreading BHK-21 cells. Inhibition of this transport by antibodies against conventional kinesin implicates this motor in establishment of the vimentin cytoskeleton.

Mol Biol Cell. 10:1999;1105-1118. Microinjection of detyrosinated, nonpolymerizable tubulin into cells induces the collapse of the vimentin network to a perinuclear distribution. The same reagent competitively inhibits kinesin binding to microtubules. These results indicate that kinesin (or at least a fraction of the motor involved in vimentin transport) preferentially interacts with microtubules enriched in detyrosinated tubulin.

Formation of the compact confomer of kinesin requires a COOH-terminal heavy chain domain and inhibits microtubule-stimulated ATPase activity. J Biol Chem. 274:1999;14617-14623. Kinesin heavy chain is able to adopt either of two conformations: an elongated conformation that exhibits ATPase activity, or a compacted conformation with reduced ATPase activity. Formation of the compact form requires the carboxy-terminal 50 amino acid residues and this part of the molecule was shown to interact with amino-terminal head/neck segments.
37. Coy D., Hancock W., Wagenbach M., Howard J. Kinesin's tail domain is an inhibitory regulator of the motor domain. Nat Cell Biol. 1:1999;288-292. The authors use ATPase and in vitro gliding assays to show that binding of kinesin to an artificial cargo relieves inhibition of this motor by its tail. Addition of exogenous tail peptide inhibited motility but not microtubule-binding by the motor.
38. Freidman D., Vale R. Single-molecule analysis of kinesin motility reveals regulation by the cargo-binding tail domain. Nat Cell Biol. 1:1999;293-297. Single-molecule fluorescence microscopy was used to measure frequency of microtubule-based motility of different kinesin heavy chain constructs. Truncated kinesin lacking a tail binds microtubules and moves 10-times more frequently than the full-length motor. In addition, alteration of a flexible hinge domain or a coiled-coil domain in the neck of kinesin eliminates inhibition by the tail.

This paper describes the development of an in vivo assay for kinesin function using Neurospora. Using this approach, the authors identify domains in the motor's stalk and tail that are likely to be important for cargo-binding and regulation.

Using an in vitro motility assay that reconstitutes Golgi vesicle transport, the authors demonstrated inhibition of microtubule plus-end directed motility by GTPγS and suggested that G proteins regulate motility of Golgi membranes along microtubules.

J Cell Sci. 112:1999;2355-2367. Real-time analysis of fluorescently labeled post-Golgi vesicles and mitochondria shows that Tau expression does not affect the rate of plus-end- and minus-end-directed organelle transport along microtubules but reduces the distance they travel continuously in both directions and frequency of transitions from minus-end to plus-end movement.

The movement of lipid droplets in Drosophila embryos was shown to occur bidirectionally along microtubules. Their net distribution is achieved by regulation of the amount of time spent moving in either direction (persistence time). Embryos with the klar mutation have impaired plus-end- and minus-end-directed transport, suggesting that the product of this gene may coordinate plus-end- and minus-end-directed motors bound to these organelles.
