Trafficking kinesin proteins (TRAKs) are kinesin adaptors. They bind the cargo binding domain of kinesin-1 motor proteins forming a link between the motor and their cargoes. This supports the idea that the KIF5A–TRAK2 interaction is multivalent and could act to ensure stable motor-cargo interaction during intracellular trafficking; dimerization of both motor and adaptor molecules further enhances this stability (Fig. 6). A similar multivalent profile was found for the TRAK2 binding site within the kinesin-1 isoform, KIF5C.
