PDBsum structure summary

Dyneins can be divided into two groups: cytoplasmic dyneins and axonemal dyneins, which are also called ciliary or flagellar dyneins.

  • axonemal
    • heavy chain: DNAH1, DNAH2, DNAH3, DNAH5, DNAH6, DNAH7, DNAH8, DNAH9, DNAH10, DNAH11, DNAH12, DNAH13, DNAH14, DNAH17
    • intermediate chain: DNAI1, DNAI2
    • light intermediate chain: DNALI1
    • light chain: DNAL1, DNAL4
  • cytoplasmic
    • heavy chain: DYNC1H1, DYNC2H1
    • intermediate chain: DYNC1I1, DYNC1I2
    • light intermediate chain: DYNC1LI1, DYNC1LI2, DYNC2LI1
    • light chain: DYNLL1, DYNLL2, DYNLRB1, DYNLRB2, DYNLT1, DYNLT3
