Cytoplasmic dynein nomenclature [PDF]

The Journal of Cell Biology, 2005
A variety of names has been used in the literature for the subunits of cytoplasmic dynein complexes. Thus, there is a strong need for a more definitive consensus statement on nomenclature. This is especially important for mammalian cytoplasmic dyneins, many subunits of which are encoded by multiple genes.

From the cell membrane to the nucleus: unearthing transport mechanisms for Dynein [PDF]

, 2012
Mutations in the motor protein cytoplasmic dynein have been found to cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, spinal muscular atrophy, and severe intellectual disabilities in humans. In mouse models, neurodegeneration is observed.

Dynein light intermediate chains as pivotal determinants of dynein multifunctionality [PDF]

Journal of Cell Science, 2021
ABSTRACT In animal cells, a single cytoplasmic dynein motor mediates microtubule minus-end-directed transport, counterbalancing dozens of plus-end-directed kinesins. The remarkable ability of dynein to interact with a diverse cargo spectrum stems from its tightly regulated recruitment of cargo-specific adaptor proteins, which engage the ...

Cell cycle-dependent microtubule-based dynamic transport of cytoplasmic dynein in mammalian cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:Cytoplasmic dynein complex is a large multi-subunit microtubule (MT)-associated molecular motor involved in various cellular functions including organelle positioning, vesicle transport and cell division.

Cyclophilin-A is bound to through its peptidylprolyl isomerase domain to the cytoplasmic dynein motor protein complex [PDF]

, 2004
Although cyclophilin A (CyP-A) is a relatively abundant small immunophilin present in the cytoplasm of all mammalian cells, its general function(s) in the absence of the immunosuppressant drug cyclosporin A is not known.

LIS1 and NDEL1 Regulate Axonal Trafficking of Mitochondria in Mature Neurons

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2022
Defective mitochondrial dynamics in axons have been linked to both developmental and late-onset neurological disorders. Axonal trafficking is in large part governed by the microtubule motors kinesin-1 and cytoplasmic dynein 1 (dynein).

Mutations in DYNC2LI1 disrupt cilia function and cause short rib polydactyly syndrome. [PDF]

, 2015
The short rib polydactyly syndromes (SRPSs) are a heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive, perinatal lethal skeletal disorders characterized primarily by short, horizontal ribs, short limbs and polydactyly.

Co-silencing of human Bub3 and dynein highlights an antagonistic relationship in regulating kinetochore-microtubule attachments [PDF]

, 2015
We previously reported that the spindle assembly checkpoint protein Bub3 is involved in regulating kinetochore-microtubule (KT-MT) attachments. Also, Bub3 was reported to interact with the microtubule motor protein dynein.

Versatile properties of dynein molecules underlying regulation in flagellar oscillation

Scientific Reports, 2023
Dynein is a minus-end-directed motor that generates oscillatory motion in eukaryotic flagella. Cyclic beating, which is the most significant feature of a flagellum, occurs by sliding spatiotemporal regulation by dynein along microtubules.
