Cytoplasmic dynein nomenclature [PDF]
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.

Nanoparticle-assisted optical tethering of endosomes reveals the cooperative function of dyneins in retrograde axonal transport [PDF]
Dynein-dependent transport of organelles from the axon terminals to the cell bodies is essential to the survival and function of neurons. However, quantitative knowledge of dyneins on axonal organelles and their collective function during this long ...

Inner lumen proteins stabilize doublet microtubules in cilia and flagella
Microtubules in cilia are sufficiently stable to withstand the beating motion, but how they are stabilized while serving as tracks for intraflagellar transport and axonemal dyneins remains unknown.

Cryo-EM of dynein microtubule-binding domains shows how an axonemal dynein distorts the microtubule
Dyneins are motor proteins responsible for transport in the cytoplasm and the beating of axonemes in cilia and flagella. They bind and release microtubules via a compact microtubule-binding domain (MTBD) at the end of a coiled-coil stalk.

Functional State of the Axonemal Dyneins during Flagellar Bend Propagation [PDF]
When mouse spermatozoa swim in media of high viscosity, additional waves of bending are superimposed on the primary traveling wave. The additional (secondary) waves are relatively small in scale and high in frequency.

Cryo-electron tomography reveals that dynactin recruits a team of dyneins for processive motility [PDF]
A key player in the intracellular trafficking network is cytoplasmic dynein, a protein complex that transports molecular cargo along microtubule tracks. It has been shown that vertebrate dynein’s movement becomes strikingly enhanced upon interacting with

(A) Dynein network: The green coloring indicates 4 out of 5 hits regarding axonemal dyneins. DNAH7 (also identified in our screen) was not part of the network. Blue symbols represent dyneins which were part of the library but were not determined as hits.

Ciliary beating requires the coordinated activity of numerous axonemal complexes. The protein composition and role of radial spokes (RS), nexin links (N-DRC) and dyneins (ODAs and IDAs) is well established.

Axonemal dyneins and force generation by neurons in Drosophila melanogaster ear [PDF]
Analogous to vertebrate hair cells, the mechanosensory cilia of Drosophila auditory neurons are motile and serve dual, transducing and actuating roles.

Cytoplasmic assembly of ciliary dyneins, a process known as preassembly, requires numerous non-dynein proteins, but the identities and functions of these proteins are not fully elucidated.
