Abstract
8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome is a rare hematological malignancy with aggressive course caused by the various translocation of FGFR1. In this study, a novel FGFR1 fusion was identified by RNA sequencing in a 28-year-old male patient with acute B-lymphoblastic leukemia. The patient harbors an in-frame fusion between KIF5B exon 15 and FGFR1 exon 10. The FGFR1 fusion and its protein expression was validated by Sanger sequencing and Western blot. Meanwhile, cytogenetic analysis reported a normal karyotype and targeted DNA sequencing identified no driver mutations, respectively. Despite he achieved complete remission after induction regimen, a relapse occurred and he became refractory to chemotherapy, and salvage haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation failed to control the progressive disease. In conclusion, we present the first case of KIF5B-FGFR1 fusion in hematological malignancy. These findings extend the spectrum of translocation in 8p11 myeloproliferative syndrome, and demonstrate the great prospect of RNA sequencing in clinical practice again.

Abstract
Classical swine fever (CSF), caused by classical swine fever virus (CSFV), is an important and highly infectious pig disease worldwide. Kinesin-1, a molecular motor responsible for transporting cargo along the microtubule, has been demonstrated to be involved in the infections of diverse viruses. However, the role of kinesin-1 in the CSFV life cycle remains unknown. Here, we first found that Kif5B played a positive role in CSFV entry by knockdown or overexpression of Kif5B. Subsequently, we showed that Kif5B was associated with the endosomal and lysosomal trafficking of CSFV in the early stage of CSFV infection, which was reflected by the colocalization of Kif5B and Rab7, Rab11, or Lamp1. Interestingly, trichostatin A (TSA) treatment promoted CSFV proliferation, suggesting that microtubule acetylation facilitated CSFV endocytosis. The results of chemical inhibitors and RNA interference showed that Rac1 and Cdc42 induced microtubule acetylation after CSFV infection. Furthermore, confocal microscopy revealed that cooperation between Kif5B and dynein help CSFV particles move in both directions along microtubules. Collectively, our study shed light on the role of kinesin motor Kif5B in CSFV endocytic trafficking, indicating the dynein/kinesin-mediated bidirectional CSFV movement. The elucidation of this study provides the foundation for developing CSFV antiviral drugs. IMPORTANCE The minus end-directed cytoplasmic dynein and the plus end-directed kinesin-1 are the molecular motors that transport cargo on microtubules in intracellular trafficking, which plays a notable role in the life cycles of diverse viruses. Our previous studies have reported that the CSFV entry host cell is dependent on the microtubule-based motor dynein. However, little is known about the involvement of kinesin-1 in CSFV infection. Here, we revealed the critical role of kinesin-1 that regulated the viral endocytosis along acetylated microtubules induced by Cdc42 and Rac1 after CSFV entry. Mechanistically, once CSFV transported by dynein met an obstacle, it recruited kinesin-1 to move in reverse to the anchor position. This study extends the theoretical basis of intracellular transport of CSFV and provides a potential target for the control and treatment of CSFV infection.

Abstract
Mitochondria are distributed in the cell to match the energy demands, and it is their interaction with the cytoskeleton that controls their movement and displacement. Our purpose was to determine which cytoskeletal components are primarily responsible for mitochondrial movement in muscle cells. Live-cell imaging was used to visualize mitochondrial dynamics in myoblasts. Destabilization of microtubules (MT) reduced the total path length and average speed traveled by mitochondria by 64-74%, whereas actin disruption only reduced these variables by 37-40%. Downregulation of the microtubule motor proteins, Kif5B and dynein, by siRNA resulted in decreases in the average speed of mitochondrial movements, by 30 to 40%. We observed a reduction in the average speed of mitochondrial movements (by 22 to 48%) under high calcium conditions. This attenuation in the presence of calcium was negated in cells pre-treated with siRNA targeted to the microtubule motor protein adaptor, Milton, suggesting that Milton is involved in mediating mitochondrial arrest in the presence of high calcium within muscle cells. Thus, we have demonstrated that, in myoblasts, mitochondria primarily move along microtubules tracks with the aid of the motor proteins Kif5B and dynein, in a manner which is inhibited by calcium. These observations will eventually help us understand organelle movements in more complex muscle systems, such as mature myotubes subjected to elevated calcium levels and contractile activity.
