The Structure of a Yeast Dynein Dyn2-Pac11 Complex and Effect on Single Molecule Dynein Motor Activity
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23761070
Function
[DYL1_YEAST] Acts as one of several non-catalytic accessory components of the cytoplasmic dynein complex that are thought to be involved in linking dynein to cargos and to adapter proteins that regulate dynein function. Cytoplasmic dynein 1 acts as a motor for the intracellular retrograde motility of vesicles and organelles along microtubules. May play a role in changing or maintaining the spatial distribution of cytoskeletal structures (By similarity). [PAC11_YEAST] Required for viability in the absence of the kinesin-related CIN8 mitotic motor. May be a dynein intermediate chain.
