Dyneins

Current Biology, 2023
Dyneins are a family of motor proteins that carry out motility and force generation functions towards the minus end of microtubule filaments. Cytoplasmic dynein (dynein-1) is responsible for transporting intracellular cargos in the retrograde direction in the cytoplasm, anchoring several organelles to the microtubule network, driving nuclear migration ...

Dynein dynamics

Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2012
Dyneins are the largest of the cytoskeletal motor proteins, and their mechanochemical behavior is complex. Recent high-resolution crystallographic structures have revealed new surprises regarding motor domain organization and new insights into how force and movement are achieved.

Axonemal dyneins

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1992
Recent advances in our understanding of the axonemal dyneins reveal them to be much more complex than previously believed. A combination of genetic, molecular genetic, ultrastructural and biochemical approaches is now aiding the elucidation of the organization and function of these important mechanochemical transducers.

Cytoplasmic dynein

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2011
The organization and function of eukaryotic cells rely on the action of many different molecular motor proteins. Cytoplasmic dynein drives the movement of a wide range of cargoes towards the minus ends of microtubules, and these events are needed, not just at the single-cell level, but are vital for correct development.

Reconstitution of Dynein/Dynactin Transport Using Recombinant Dynein

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 ...

Multi‐Dynein hypothesis

Cell Motility, 1995
Axonemal dyneins and cytoplasmic dynein have evolved separate strategies to perform their tasks. The multi-dynein hypothesis accurately describes the highly specialized axonemal isoforms; each isoform is encoded by a separate gene, is located in a precise place, produces specific forces which contribute to the overall generation of propagated bending ...

Axonemal dynein from Tetrahymena

Journal of Cell Science, 1991
ABSTRACT Axonemal dynein from Tetrahymena cilia can be separated on a sucrose gradient into two fractions, at least one of which appears to be polymorphic. We have been using immuno-electron microscopy in order to try and locate the different types of dynein molecules within the axonemal structure.

Dynein Structure And Function

Journal of Cell Science, 1986
ABSTRACT The structure of dynein isolated from several sources follows the pattern first observed with Tetrahymena 22 S dynein, which has three globular heads attached by three flexible strands to a root-like base. Recent biochemical data indicate that there is one ATPase site on each dynein head and that all three heads interact with ...

Cytoplasmic dynein in neurodegeneration

Pharmacology & Therapeutics, 2011
Cytoplasmic dynein 1 (later referred to as dynein) is the major molecular motor moving cargoes such as mitochondria, organelles and proteins towards the minus end of microtubules. Dynein is involved in multiple basic cellular functions, such as mitosis, autophagy and structure of endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi, but also in neuron specific functions in
