Abstract: This study focuses on the kinesin motor protein TbKIFx and its presumably catalytically inactive partner TbPH1 in Trypanosoma brucei. Not much is known about the TbPH1/TbKIFx dimer so far. The aim of our research was to localize TbKIFx/TbPH1 in procyclic and bloodstream cells and to investigate potential cargo candidates. We believe that we identified the microtubule quartet and mature basal body as potential binding sites of TbKIFx/TbPH1 in both life cycle stages of T. brucei. However, our investigations into tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins as possible cargo of TbKIFx/TbPH1 remain inconclusive.
