  • Adenosinetriphosphatase, Dynein
  • ATPase, Dynein
  • Dynein
  • Dynein Adenosine Triphosphatase
  • Dynein Adenosinetriphosphatase

Scope note

  • A family of multi-subunit cytoskeletal motor proteins that use the energy of ATP hydrolysis, generated by a ring of AAA ATPASES in the dynein heavy chain, to power a variety of cellular functions. Dyneins fall into two major classes based upon structural and functional criteria.
