6kio | pdb_00006kio

Complex of yeast cytoplasmic dynein MTBD-High and MT without DTT

Loading... Status: waiting for Mol* initialization Structural highlights 6kio is a 3 chain structure with sequence from [1] and Sus scrofa. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [TBB_PIG] Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. It binds two moles of GTP, one at an exchangeable site on the beta chain and one at a non-exchangeable site on the alpha chain. [DYHC_YEAST] Cytoplasmic dynein acts as a motor for the intracellular retrograde motility of vesicles and organelles along microtubules. Dynein has ATPase activity; the force-producing power stroke is thought to occur on release of ADP. Required to maintain uniform nuclear distribution in hyphae. May play an important role in the proper orientation of the mitotic spindle into the budding daughter cell yeast. Probably required for normal progression of the cell cycle.
