Identification of the molecular composition of the cargo transported by individual kinesin motors is critical to an understanding of both motor function and regulation of the proper intracellular placement of numerous cellular components including proteins, RNA, and organelles. In this chapter, we describe methods to identify the motor tail sequences responsible for cargo binding by expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-motor tail fusion proteins in mammalian cells. In addition, we detail two complementary approaches to identify specific proteins associated with these targeting sequences: a yeast 2-hybrid screen and affinity chromatography.
