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 کاملInteractions of Yeast Dynein with Dynein Light Chain and Dynactin: GENERAL IMPLICATIONS FOR INTRINSICALLY DISORDERED DUPLEX SCAFFOLDS IN MULTIPROTEIN ASSEMBLIES.
Intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) duplexes composed of two IDP chains cross-linked by bivalent partner proteins form scaffolds for assembly of multiprotein complexes. The N-terminal domain of dynein intermediate chain (N-IC) is one such IDP that forms a bivalent scaffold with multiple dynein light chains including LC8, a hub protein that promotes duplex formation of diverse IDP partners. N...
متن کاملMitotic phosphorylation of the dynein light intermediate chain is mediated by cdc2 kinase.
Cytoplasmic dynein, a large minus-end-directed microtubule motor, performs multiple functions during the cell cycle. In interphase, dynein moves membrane organelles, while in mitosis it moves chromosomes and helps to form the mitotic spindle. The cell-cycle regulation of dynein activity may be controlled, at least in part, by the phosphorylation of its light intermediate chains (DLIC), since a ...
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 ...
