EC 5.6.1.4 Details
EC number
5.6.1.4
Accepted name
minus-end-directed kinesin ATPase
Reaction
ATP + H2O + a kinesin associated with a microtubule at position n = ADP + phosphate + a kinesin associated with a microtubule at position n-1 (toward the minus end)
Other name(s)
non-claret disjunctional, ncd (gene name)
Systematic name
kinesin ATP phosphohydrolase (minus-end-directed)
Comment
Kinesins are a family of motor proteins that move unidirectionally along microtubules as they hydrolyse ATP and are involved in organelle movement. This enzyme is similar to EC 5.6.1.3, plus-end-directed kinesin ATPase, but the organization of the different domains differs, resulting in movement in the opposite direction along the microtubules.
History
created 2000 as 3.6.4.5, transferred 2018 to EC 5.6.1.4
