Kinesin-1 reduction leads to impairment in retrograde APPYFP transport. (A) Distribution of retrograde segmental velocities. (B) Retrograde unweighted segmental velocity mode analysis for control shows three modes (cyan); see Table S1 for a definition of mode centers, spreads, and fractions of segment population. Superposition of modes is shown in red. (C) Analysis of retrograde duration-weighted segmental velocities shows a significant decrease in mean velocity for kinesin-1 reduction genotypes (mean μm/s ± SD): control, 1.02 ± 0.41; khc8/+, 0.65 ± 0.36; khc20/+, 0.37 ± 0.19; klc8ex94/+, 0.76 ± 0.39. (D) Decomposition of retrograde segmental velocity distribution into three modes for khc8/+. Although the centers of the three modes are similar to control conditions (compare with B), there is a significant shift of the vesicle population into mode 1 (see also Table S1). Red line, superposition of modes. A similar phenomenon is observed for khc20/+ and klc8ex94/+ (see Table S1). (E) Linear regression of retrograde velocity mode centers assembled for kinesin-1 reduction genotypes follows a ratio of ∼1:2:4.
