Interactions

KLC2 has been shown to interact with MAPK8IP3[7] and KIF5B.[5][8]

Model organisms

Model organisms have been used in the study of KLC2 function. A conditional knockout mouse line called Klc2tm1e(EUCOMM)Wtsi was generated at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.[9] Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen[10] to determine the effects of deletion.[11][12][13][14] Additional screens performed: - In-depth immunological phenotyping[15]
