Abstract：
:We recently discovered that in rat spermatids, kinesin light chain KLC3 can associate with outer dense fibers, major sperm tail components, and accumulates in the sperm midpiece. Here, we show that mitochondria isolated from rat-elongating spermatids have bound KLC3. Immunoelectron microscopy indicates that the association of KLC3 with mitochondria coincides with the stage in spermatogenesis when mitochondria move from the plasma membrane to the developing midpiece. KLC3 is able to bind in vitro to mitochondria from spermatids as well as somatic cells employing a conserved kinesin light chain motif, the tetratrico-peptide repeats. Expression of KLC3 in fibroblasts results in formation of large KLC3 clusters close to the nucleus, which also contain mitochondria: no other organelles were present in these clusters. Mitochondria are not present in KLC3 clusters after deletion of KLC3's tetratrico-peptide repeats. Our results indicate that the rat spermatid kinesin light chain KLC3 can associate with mitochondria.
