Motor proteins of several kinesin family groups have now been crystallized: monomeric Kinesin-1 motor domains from human,rat and Neurospora (Kull et al.,1996; Sack et al.,1997; Song et al.,2001)and dimeric rat Kinesin-1 (two motor domains connected by a short coiled-coil; Kozielski et al.,1997); the Kinesin-14 (formerly C-terminal motor)proteins Drosophila Ncd in its monomeric and dimeric forms (Sablin & Fletterick,1995,Sablin et al.,1996,1998; Kozielski et al.,1997; Yun et al.,2003),yeast KAR3 (monomer)(Gulick et al.,1998; Yun et al.,2001)and three KAR3 mutants (Yun et al.,2001),and KCBP (Vinogradova et al.,2004); the Kinesin-3 (formerly Unc104/KIF1)motor,KIF1A bound to different nucleotides (KIF1A-ADP,KIF1A-AMPPCP,KIF1A-ADP-Vi,KIF1A-AlFx)(Kikkawa et al.,2001; Nitta et al.,2004); the Kinesin-5 (formerly BimC)motor,monomeric Eg5 (Turner et al.,2001); and the Kinesin-13 (formerly MCAK)motor,PfKinI (Shipley et al.,2004).The following tables summarize the crystallization conditions and some of the crystal parameters.
