Cargo adaptors use a handhold mechanism to engage with myosin V for organelle transport

Hye Jee Hahn, Natalya Pashkova, Michael A. Cianfrocco, Lois S. Weisman

The paper shows that cargo adaptors bind myosin V through multiple sites, using a handhold mechanism to enhance motor-cargo interactions and regulation.

PMP22 associates with MPZ via their transmembrane domains and disrupting this interaction causes a loss-of-function phenotype similar to hereditary neuropathy associated with liability to pressure palsies (HNPP).

This study identifies the molecular interaction between PMP22 and MPZ through their transmembrane domains and shows how disrupting this interaction causes a loss-of-function phenotype in hereditary neuropathy.
