The motor protein kinesin-1 plays an important role in polarized sorting of transport vesicles to the axon. However, the mechanism by which the axonal entry of kinesin-1-dependent cargo transport is regulated remains unclear. Microtubule-associated protein MAP7 (ensconsin in Drosophila) is an essential kinesin-1 cofactor and promotes kinesin-1 recruitment to microtubules. Here, we found that MAP7 family member MAP7D2 concentrates at the proximal axon, where it overlaps with the axon initial segment and interacts with kinesin-1. Depletion of MAP7D2 results in reduced axonal cargo entry and defects in axon development and neuronal migration. We propose a model in which MAP7D2 in the proximal axon locally promotes kinesin-1-mediated cargo entry into the axon.
驱动蛋白 kinesin-1 在将运输囊泡极性分拣到轴突中起着重要作用。然而，kinesin-1 依赖性货物运输进入轴突的调节机制仍不清楚。微管相关蛋白 MAP7（果蝇中的 ensconsin）是一种必需的 kinesin-1 辅助因子，可促进 kinesin-1 与微管的募集。在这里，我们发现 MAP7 家族成员 MAP7D2 集中在轴突的近端，与轴突起始段重叠，并与 kinesin-1 相互作用。MAP7D2 的耗竭导致轴突货物进入减少，并导致轴突发育和神经元迁移缺陷。我们提出了一个模型，即近端轴突中的 MAP7D2 局部促进 kinesin-1 介导的货物进入轴突。
