Functional partitioning of a liquid-like organelle during assembly of axonemal dyneins

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Ciliary motility is driven by axonemal dyneins that are assembled in the cytoplasm before deployment to cilia. Motile ciliopathy can result from defects in the dyneins themselves or from defects in factors required for their cytoplasmic pre-assembly ...

Consensus nomenclature for dyneins and associated assembly factors

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2022
Dyneins are highly complex, multicomponent, microtubule-based molecular motors. These enzymes are responsible for numerous motile behaviors in cytoplasm, mediate retrograde intraflagellar transport (IFT), and power ciliary and flagellar motility ...

N-Terminal Processing and Modification of Ciliary Dyneins

open access: yesCells, 2023
Axonemal dyneins are highly complex microtubule motors that power ciliary motility. These multi-subunit enzymes are assembled at dedicated sites within the cytoplasm.

Dyneins Across Eukaryotes: A Comparative Genomic Analysis

open access: yesTraffic, 2007
Dyneins are large minus-end-directed microtubule motors. Each dynein contains at least one dynein heavy chain (DHC) and a variable number of intermediate chains (IC), light intermediate chains (LIC) and light chains (LC).

Clockwise Translocation of Microtubules by Flagellar Inner-Arm Dyneins In Vitro

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2008
Cilia and flagella are equipped with multiple species of dyneins that have diverse motor properties. To assess the properties of various axonemal dyneins of Chlamydomonas, in vitro microtubule translocation by isolated dyneins was examined with and ...

Systematic studies of all PIH proteins in zebrafish reveal their distinct roles in axonemal dynein assembly

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Construction of motile cilia/flagella requires cytoplasmic preassembly of axonemal dyneins before transport into cilia. Axonemal dyneins have various subtypes, but the roles of each dynein subtype and their assembly processes remain elusive in ...

FBB18 participates in preassembly of almost all axonemal dyneins independent of R2TP complex

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2022
Assembly of dynein arms requires cytoplasmic processes which are mediated by dynein preassembly factors (DNAAFs). CFAP298, which is conserved in organisms with motile cilia, is required for assembly of dynein arms but with obscure mechanisms.

Recruitment of two dyneins to an mRNA-dependent Bicaudal D transport complex

open access: yeseLife, 2018
We investigated the role of full-length Drosophila Bicaudal D (BicD) binding partners in dynein-dynactin activation for mRNA transport on microtubules. Full-length BicD robustly activated dynein-dynactin motility only when both the mRNA binding protein ...

Tubulin glycylation controls ciliary motility through modulation of outer-arm dyneins. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Biol Cell
Tubulins undergo several kinds of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) including glutamylation and glycylation. The contribution of these PTMs to the motilities of cilia and flagella is still unclear.
