In this study, Norris and Mendell sought to understand the mechanisms by which mRNA localization regulates protein function in nonneuronal cells during cell migration. They examined the functional consequences of localization of the mRNA encoding KIF1C, a kinesin motor protein required for cell migration and mRNA trafficking, and show that Kif1c mRNA localization does not regulate KIF1C's protein abundance, distribution, or ability to traffic other mRNAs and provide insight into a mechanistic connection between mRNA localization to cell protrusions and the specificity of protein–protein interactions. Subcellular localization of messenger RNA (mRNA) is a widespread phenomenon that can impact the regulation and function of the encoded protein. In nonneuronal cells, specific mRNAs localize to cell protrusions, and proper mRNA localization is required for cell migration. However, the mechanisms by which mRNA localization regulates protein function in this setting remain unclear. Here, we examined the functional consequences of localization of the mRNA encoding KIF1C. KIF1C is a kinesin motor protein required for cell migration and mRNA trafficking, including trafficking of its own mRNA. We show that Kif1c mRNA localization does not regulate KIF1C's protein abundance, distribution, or ability to traffic other mRNAs. Conversely, Kif1c mRNA localization to protrusions is required for directed cell migration. We used mass spectrometry to identify binding partners of endogenous KIF1C, which revealed dramatic dysregulation of the number and identity of KIF1C interactors in response to Kif1c mRNA mislocalization. These results therefore uncovered a mechanistic connection between mRNA localization to cell protrusions and the specificity of protein–protein interactions. We anticipate that this mechanism is not limited to Kif1c and is likely to be a general principle that impacts the functions of proteins encoded by protrusion-enriched mRNAs in nonneuronal cells.
