A squid dynein isoform promotes axoplasmic vesicle translocation
Axoplasmic vesicles that translocate on isolated microtubules in an ATP-dependent manner have an associated ATP-binding polypeptide with a previously estimated relative molecular mass of 292 kD (Gilbert, S. P., and R. D. Sloboda. 1986. J. Cell Biol. 103:947-956). Here, data are presented showing that this polypeptide (designated H1) and another high molecular mass polypeptide (H2) can be isolat...
متن کاملMTOC translocation modulates IS formation and controls sustained T cell signaling
The translocation of the microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) toward the nascent immune synapse (IS) is an early step in lymphocyte activation initiated by T cell receptor (TCR) signaling. The molecular mechanisms that control the physical movement of the lymphocyte MTOC remain largely unknown. We have studied the role of the dynein-dynactin complex, a microtubule-based molecular motor, in the ...
متن کاملRecruitment of dynein to the Jurkat immunological synapse.
Binding of T cells to antigen-presenting cells leads to the formation of the immunological synapse, translocation of the microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) to the synapse, and focused secretion of effector molecules. Here, we show that upon activation of Jurkat cells microtubules project from the MTOC to a ring of the scaffolding protein ADAP, localized at the synapse. Loss of ADAP, but not l...
متن کاملPresenilin controls kinesin-1 and dynein function during APP-vesicle transport in vivo.
Neurons and other cells require intracellular transport of essential components for viability and function. Previous work has shown that while net amyloid precursor protein (APP) transport is generally anterograde, individual vesicles containing APP move bi-directionally. This discrepancy highlights our poor understanding of the in vivo regulation of APP-vesicle transport. Here, we show that re...
متن کاملHuntingtin facilitates dynein/dynactin-mediated vesicle transport.
Cytoplasmic dynein is a multisubunit microtubule motor complex that, together with its activator, dynactin, drives vesicular cargo toward the minus ends of microtubules. Huntingtin (Htt) is a vesicle-associated protein found in both neuronal and nonneuronal cells that is thought to be involved in vesicular transport. In this study, we demonstrate through yeast two-hybrid and affinity chromatogr...
