Reconstitution of Dynein/Dynactin Transport Using Recombinant Dynein.

Methods in molecular biology, 2023
Cytoplasmic dynein-1 is activated by dynactin and a cargo adaptor for processive transport along microtubules. Dynein's motility can be visualized at the single-molecule level using total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. Our understanding of the motile behavior of the dynein/dynactin complex has been aided by advances in recombinant ...

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.

Quantitatively Dissecting Triple Roles of Dynactin in Dynein-Driven Transport of Influenza Virus by Quantum Dot-Based Single-Virus Tracking.

ACS Nano
After entering host cells by endocytosis, influenza A virus (IAV) is transported along microfilaments and then transported by dynein along microtubules (MTs) to the perinuclear region for genome release.

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.

Diamond controls epithelial polarity through the dynactin‐dynein complex

Traffic, 2023
AbstractEpithelial polarity is critical for proper functions of epithelial tissues, tumorigenesis, and metastasis. The evolutionarily conserved transmembrane protein Crumbs (Crb) is a key regulator of epithelial polarity. Both Crb protein and its transcripts are apically localized in epithelial cells.

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.

Microtubule dynamics regulates Akt signaling via dynactin p150

Cellular Signalling, 2014
Following activation at the plasma membrane, Akt is subsequently deactivated in the cytoplasm. Although activation and deactivation of Akt must sometimes be separated in order to elicit and control cellular responses, the exact details of the spatiotemporal organization of Akt signaling are incompletely understood.

Cytoplasmic dynein/dynactin mediates the assembly of aggresomes

Cell Motility, 2002
AbstractAggresomes are pericentrosomal cytoplasmic structures into which aggregated, ubiquitinated, misfolded proteins are sequestered. Misfolded proteins accumulate in aggresomes when the capacity of the intracellular protein degradation machinery is exceeded.

Dynactin complex

1999
Abstract The dynactin molecule as a unit appears to be unique, though it is structurally similar to the short actin filaments that comprise the erythrocyte membrane cytoskeleton. This has led to speculation that the dynactin Arp1 filament might bind membranes via a spectrin network.
