Function

Kinesin is a microtubule-associated force-producing protein that may play a role in organelle transport. The light chain may function in coupling of cargo to the heavy chain or in the modulation of its ATPase activity (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Localization

Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000305}.
