Background: Neuronal kinesin heavy chain 2 (NKHC2) is a 1,032 amino acid protein that is part of the kinesin superfamily which consists of the heavy chains of conventional kinesin. NKHC is expressed throughout the central nervous system, but is highly expressed in certain subsets of neurons. NKHC has a unique C-terminal stretch of 69 amino acids and interacts with dystrobrevin, an adaptor/scaffolding protein. This interaction may play a role in the transport and targeting of components of the dystrophin-associated protein complex to precice sites in the cell. NKHC may also be involved in the microtubule-dependent slow axonal transport of neurofilament proteins during the maturation of neuronal cells.
