Dynamin and Cytokinesis [PDF]

open access: yesTraffic, 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

Role of GTPase-Dependent Mitochondrial Dynamins in Heart Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Heart function maintenance requires a large amount of energy, which is supplied by the mitochondria. In addition to providing energy to cardiomyocytes, mitochondria also play an important role in maintaining cell function and homeostasis.

The dynamin superfamily [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent 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.

Phosphorylation of dynamin by ERK2 inhibits the dynamin‐microtubule interaction [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1996
In the present study we show that purified bovine brain dynamin can be phosphorylated by MAP kinase, ERK2, with a stoichiometry of 1 mol phosphate/mol dynamin. The phosphorylated serine residue is located within the C‐terminal 10 kDa of dynamin. Dynamin I phosphorylated by ERK2 can be specifically dephosphorylated by calcineurin but not by protein ...

Specific interaction with cardiolipin triggers functional activation of Dynamin-Related Protein 1. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Dynamin-Related Protein 1 (Drp1), a large GTPase of the dynamin superfamily, is required for mitochondrial fission in healthy and apoptotic cells. Drp1 activation is a complex process that involves translocation from the cytosol to the mitochondrial ...

Microtubule assembly by tau impairs endocytosis and neurotransmission via dynamin sequestration in Alzheimer’s disease synapse model

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Elevation of soluble wild-type (WT) tau occurs in synaptic compartments in Alzheimer’s disease. We addressed whether tau elevation affects synaptic transmission at the calyx of Held in slices from mice brainstem. Whole-cell loading of WT human tau (h-tau)

Autism and mild epilepsy associated with a de novo missense pathogenic variant in the GTPase effector domain of DNM1

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Dynamin 1 is a GTPase protein involved in synaptic vesicle fission, which facilitates the exocytosis of neurotransmitters necessary for normal signaling. Pathogenic variants in the DNM1 gene are associated with intractable epilepsy, often manifested as infantile spasms at onset, developmental delay, and a movement disorder, and are located in ...

A highly-sensitive high throughput assay for dynamin's basal GTPase activity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is the major pathway by which cells internalize materials from the external environment. Dynamin, a large multidomain GTPase, is a key regulator of clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

Essential lipid autacoids rewire mitochondrial energy efficiency in metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.
