DESCRIPTION

Also known as KIF5_DICDI, kif5, kin5. Microtubule-associated force-producing protein that plays a role in organelle transport. Its motor activity is directed toward the microtubule's plus end (By similarity). May connect microtubules to actin filaments. Associates with actin-based structures in cells and is likely involved in the organization of actin cytoskeletons in such structures. Interacts with actin.
