The JNK-interacting protein (JIP) group of scaffold proteins selectively mediates JNK signaling by aggregating specific components of the MAPK cascade to form a functional JNK signaling module. May function as a regulator of vesicle transport, through interactions with the JNK-signaling components and motor proteins (PubMed:10523642, PubMed:10629060). Promotes neuronal axon elongation in a kinesin- and JNK-dependent manner (PubMed:23576431, PubMed:25944905, PubMed:28259553). Activates cofilin at axon tips via local activation of JNK, thereby regulating filopodial dynamics and enhancing axon elongation (PubMed:23576431, PubMed:25944905, PubMed:28259553). Its binding to kinesin heavy chains (KHC), promotes kinesin-1 motility along microtubules and is essential for axon elongation and regeneration (PubMed:23576431, PubMed:25944905, PubMed:28259553). Regulates cortical neuronal migration by mediating NTRK2/TRKB anterograde axonal transport during brain development (PubMed:23576431, PubMed:25944905, PubMed:28259553). Acts as an adapter that bridges the interaction between NTRK2/TRKB and KLC1 and drives NTRK2/TRKB axonal but not dendritic anterograde transport, which is essential for subsequent BDNF-triggered signaling and filopodia formation (PubMed:23576431, PubMed:25944905, PubMed:28259553).
