Traffic, 2006 Animal and plant cytokineses appear morphologically distinct. Recent studies, however, have revealed that these cellular processes have many things in common, including the requirement of co‐ordinated membrane trafficking and cytoskeletal dynamics. At the intersection of these two processes are the members of the dynamin family of ubiquitous eukaryotic

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Dynamin is an endocytic protein that functions in vesicle formation by scission of invaginated membranes. Dynamin maintains the structure of foot processes in glomerular podocytes by directly and indirectly interacting with actin filaments.

Synthesis and Effect of Conformationally Locked Carbocyclic Guanine Nucleotides on Dynamin
Biomolecules, 2022 Guanine nucleotides can flip between a North and South conformation in the ribose moiety. To test the enzymatic activity of GTPases bound to nucleotides in the two conformations, we generated methanocarba guanine nucleotides in the North or South ...

Life, 2021 Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection initiates massive rearrangement of cytoplasmic organelles to generate assembly compartment (AC). The earliest events, the establishment of the preAC, are initiated in the early phase as an extensive reorganization of early

CryoEM structure of the super-constricted two-start dynamin 1 filament
Nature Communications, 2021 Dynamin mediates the fission of vesicles during endocytosis. Here, the authors report the cryoEM structure of a super-constricted two-start dynamin 1 filament- one of the two known helical forms of dynamin, with insights into the molecular mechanisms of ...

Chemical Inhibitors of Dynamin Exert Differential Effects in VEGF Signaling
Cells, 2021 VEGFR2 is the main receptor and mediator of the vasculogenic and angiogenic activity of VEGF. Activated VEGFR2 internalizes through clathrin-mediated endocytosis and macropinocytosis.

Current Biology, 2018 The dynamin superfamily comprises a growing assortment of multi-domain GTPases, found from bacteria to man, that are distinguished from typical GTPases of the Ras, Rab and G-protein families by their modular structure (Figure 1), relatively large size (>70 kDa), and low affinity for guanine nucleotides.

Essential function of dynamin in the invasive properties and actin architecture of v-Src induced podosomes/invadosomes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The large GTPase dynamin plays a key role in endocytosis but is also localized at numerous actin rich sites. We investigated dynamin functions at podosomes/invadosomes, actin-based cellular adhesion structures implicated in tissue invasion.

Journal of Cell Science, 2009 The superfamily of dynamins includes classical dynamins and dynamin-related proteins. Classical dynamins are proteins that share sequence similarity with the first described dynamin, which is a large GTPase with five characteristic domains.
