Kinesin is an ATP-dependent motor protein responsible for the transportation of cargo. It is a heterotetramer composed of light and heavy chains.

Nitronate Monooxygenase (NMO) is an FMN-dependent (flavin mononucleotide) enzyme that oxidizes the neurotoxin propionate 3-nitronate (P3N). FMN is produced from riboflavin or Vitamin B2 by riboflavin kinase and can function as a prosthetic group for NADH dehydrogenase <ref>Huerta C, Borek D, Machius M, Grishin NV, Zhang H. Structure and Mechanism of a Eukaryotic FMN Adenylyltransferase. Journal of molecular biology. 2009;389(2):388-400. doi:10.1016/j.jmb.2009.04.022.</ref>. NMO is widely known as the best system for P3N detoxification in many different organisms.

P3N can be considered a toxic compound that is commonly found in legumes, fungi, and leaf beetles. During hydrolysis, P3N is released from esters and acts as an irreversible inhibitor of mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase. <ref>Hipkin CR, Simpson DJ, Wainwright SJ, Salem MA. Nitrification by plants that also fix nitrogen. Nature. 2004;430(6995):98–101.</ref> Succinate dehydrogenase is a key enzyme in the Kreb's cycle and the electron transport chain for oxidative phosphorylation. Because this is inhibited, it can lead to a variety of neurological disorders and even death. <ref>Francis K, Smitherman C, Nishino SF, Spain JC, Gadda G. The bio-chemistry of the metabolic poison propionate 3-nitronate and its conjugate acid, 3-nitropropionate. IUBMB Life. 2013;65(9):759–768.</ref>

;Scene #2: This is the ATP binding site. Upon the binding of phosphate to ADP, ATP is formed giving Kinesin the energy needed to move the cargo one step a head to its destination <scene name='75/752263/Atp_binding_site/5'> ATP-binding site </scene>

;Scene #3: This is the Microtubule-binding site, where Kinesin binds to microtubules for stability <scene name='75/752263/Mt-binding_site/1'> MT-binding site </scene>

;Scene #4: some patients with CMT show mutation in the p-loop. A missense mutation results in a leucine in place of glutamine affecting signal transmission <scene name='75/752263/Cmt/1'> CMT </scene>
This is a sample scene created with SAT to <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/1">color</scene> by Group, and another to make <scene name="/12/3456/Sample/2">a transparent representation</scene> of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
