Post‐LECA Origin and Diversification of an Axonemal Outer Arm Dynein Motor

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dyneins were present in the last eukaryotic common ancestor (LECA) and play key roles in eukaryotic biology. Axonemal dyneins form the inner and outer arms that power ciliary beating, and it has long been recognized that outer arms in some organisms contain two different heavy chain motors, whereas those from other species contain a third unit
