p25 of the dynactin complex plays a dual role in cargo binding and dynactin regulation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2018
Cytoplasmic dynein binds its cargoes via the dynactin complex and cargo adapters, and the dynactin pointed-end protein p25 is required for dynein-dynactin binding to the early endosomal dynein adapter HookA (Hook in the fungus Aspergillus nidulans). However, it is unclear whether the HookA-dynein-dynactin interaction requires p27, another pointed-end ...

Structure and function of dynactin

open access: yesSeminars in Cell and Developmental Biology, 1996
Abstract Dynactin is a 1·2 mDa protein complex initially isolated as an activator of cytoplasmic dynein-driven vesicle movementin vitro. Genetic studies have verified that dynactin participates in dynein-based transport events as varied as nuclear localization and axonal transport.

Dynactin Function in Mitotic Spindle Positioning [PDF]

open access: yesTraffic, 2008
Dynactin is a multisubunit protein complex necessary for dynein function. Here, we investigated the function of dynactin in budding yeast. Loss of dynactin impaired movement and positioning of the mitotic spindle, similar to loss of dynein. Dynactin subunits required for function included p150Glued, dynamitin, actin‐related protein (Arp) 1 and p24 ...

Dynactin is essential for growth cone advance

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2008
Dynactin is a multi-subunit complex that serves as a critical cofactor of the microtubule motor cytoplasmic dynein. We previously identified dynactin in the nerve growth cone. However, the function of dynactin in the growth cone is still unclear. Here we show that dynactin in the growth cone is required for constant forward movement of the growth cone.

The structure of the dynactin complex and its interaction with dynein [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2015
Making a molecular motor fit for purpose Dynactin is an essential cofactor of the microtubule motor, cytoplasmic dynein. Dynactin contains 23 subunits built around a short filament of an actin-related protein (Arp1).

Dynactin is involved in Lewy body pathology

Neuropathology, 2018
Dynactin forms a protein complex with dynein that retrogradely transports cargo along microtubules. Dysfunction of this dynein‐dynactin complex causes several neurodegenerative diseases such as Perry syndrome, motor neuron diseases and progressive supranuclear palsy.

DYNACTIN

Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 2004
▪ Abstract  Dynactin is a multisubunit protein complex that is required for most, if not all, types of cytoplasmic dynein activity in eukaryotes. Dynactin binds dynein directly and allows the motor to traverse the microtubule lattice over long distances.
