Residue Arg216 is the key residue in KIF for the chemical cycling of ATPase and for the mechanical cycling. Arg216 pivots to enable Mg-ADP release or the phosphate release. Arg216 forms a latch in the KIF 'closed-state' before the Mg-ADP release. Binding of β-tubulin to KIF releases the latch, enabling the KIF conformation change and detaching KIF from the microtubule and enabling the next movement cycle<ref>PMID:18806800</ref>. | Residue Arg216 is the key residue in KIF for the chemical cycling of ATPase and for the mechanical cycling.
