**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein

**Definition:** A fusion protein encoded by the KIF5B/RET fusion gene. This protein is comprised of the motor domain and various portions the coiled-coil domain of the kinesin-1 heavy chain protein, fused with the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain of the proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase receptor Ret protein, including the tyrosine kinase domain.

**Synonyms:** - KIF5B-RET Fusion Protein - KIF5B::RET Fusion Protein - Kinesin-1 Heavy Chain/Proto-Oncogene Tyrosine-Protein Kinase Receptor Ret Fusion Protein
