Light chain-dependent self-association of dynein intermediate chain.
Dynein light chains are bivalent dimers that bind two copies of dynein intermediate chain IC to form a cargo attachment subcomplex. The interaction of light chain LC8 with the natively disordered N-terminal domain of IC induces helix formation at distant IC sites in or near a region predicted to form a coiled-coil. This fostered the hypothesis that LC8 binding promotes IC self-association to fo...
متن کاملStructural and thermodynamic characterization of a cytoplasmic dynein light chain-intermediate chain complex.
Cytoplasmic dynein is a microtubule-based motor protein complex that plays important roles in a wide range of fundamental cellular processes, including vesicular transport, mitosis, and cell migration. A single major form of cytoplasmic dynein associates with membranous organelles, mitotic kinetochores, the mitotic and migratory cell cortex, centrosomes, and mRNA complexes. The ability of cytop...
متن کاملFunctional interaction between dynein light chain and intermediate chain is required for mitotic spindle positioning
Cytoplasmic dynein is a large multisubunit complex involved in retrograde transport and the positioning of various organelles. Dynein light chain (LC) subunits are conserved across species; however, the molecular contribution of LCs to dynein function remains controversial. One model suggests that LCs act as cargo-binding scaffolds. Alternatively, LCs are proposed to stabilize the intermediate ...
متن کاملApoptotic Cleavage of Cytoplasmic Dynein Intermediate Chain and P150GluedStops Dynein-Dependent Membrane Motility
Cytoplasmic dynein is the major minus end-directed microtubule motor in animal cells, and associates with many of its cargoes in conjunction with the dynactin complex. Interaction between cytoplasmic dynein and dynactin is mediated by the binding of cytoplasmic dynein intermediate chains (CD-IC) to the dynactin subunit, p150(Glued). We have found that both CD-IC and p150(Glued) are cleaved by c...
متن کاملDynein light chain 1 phosphorylation controls macropinocytosis.
Recent studies have identified dynein light chain-1 (DLC1), a component of the dynein motor, as a p21-activated kinase 1 (Pak1)-interacting substrate with binding sites mapped to amino acids 61-89 of DLC1 and phosphorylation site at serine 88. Here we investigated the role of DLC1 phosphorylation by Pak1 upon the process of macropinocytosis. We found that Pak1 associates with dynein motor and t...
