Proteins such as UNC-76 that associate with kinesin motors are important in directing neurite extension. A small Caenorhabditis elegans coiled-coil protein, UNC-69, has now been shown to interact with UNC-76 and to be involved in axonal (but not dendritic) transport and outgrowth, as well as synapse formation.
诸如UNC-76这类与驱动蛋白马达相关的蛋白质在引导神经突延伸过程中起着重要作用。现已证明,一种小型秀丽隐杆线虫卷曲螺旋蛋白UNC-69可与UNC-76相互作用,并参与轴突(而非树突)运输、生长以及突触形成。
