The kinesins constitute a large family of microtubule-dependent motor proteins, which are responsible for the distribution of numerous organelles, vesicles and macromolecular complexes throughout the cell. Individual kinesin members play crucial roles in cell division, intracellular transport and membrane trafficking events including endocytosis and transcytosis. KIFC1 is a 673 amino acid protein that belongs to the kinesin-like family of proteins. KIFC1 localizes to the nucleus and contain
