Dynactin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dynactin or Dynein activator complex is a multi-subunit protein found in eukaryotic cells that aids in bidirectional intracellular transport by binding to dynein and kinesin-2 and linking them to the organelle or vesicle to be transported.[1][2]

Dynactin consists of many subunits of which the p150Glued doublet (encoded by the DCTN1 gene) is the largest and has been found to be essential for function.[1] This structure of dynactin is highly conserved in vertebrates. There are three isoforms encoded by a single p150Glued gene.[3] The dynactin complex visualized by deepetch electron microscopy appears as a short filament 37-nm in length, which resembles F-actin, plus a thinner, laterally oriented filament that terminates in two globular heads.[4]

The dynactin complex consists of three major structural domains: (1) sidearm-shoulder: DCTN1, DCTN2/dynamitin, DCTN3/p22/p24;(2)the Arp1 rod: Arp1/centractin, actin, CapZ; and (3) the pointed end complex: Actr10/Arp11, DCTN4/p62, DCTN5/p25, and DCTN6/p27.[5] Dynactin interacts with dynein directly by the binding of dynein intermediate chains with the p150Glued doublet.[6] DCTN2 (dynamitin) is also involved in anchoring microtubules to centrosomes and may play a role in synapse formation during brain development.[7] DCTN4 (p62) binds directly to the Arp1 subunit of dynactin.[8][9] Arp1 has been shown as the domain for dynactin binding to membrane vesicles (such as Golgi or late endosome) through its association with β-spectrin.[10][11][12][13] The pointed end complex (PEC) has been shown to be involved in selective cargo binding. PEC subunits p62/DCTN4 and Arp11/Actr10 are essential for dynactin complex integrity and dynactin/dynein targeting to the nuclear envelope before mitosis.[14][15][16] Dynactin p25/DCTN5 and p27/DCTN6 are not essential for dynactin complex integrity, but are required for early and recycling endosome transport during the interphase and regulation of the spindle assembly checkpoint in mitosis.[16][17][18]

Functions

Dynactin is often essential for dynein activity[1][19] and can be thought of as a "dynein receptor"[6] that modulates binding of dynein to cell organelles which are to be transported along microtubules.[20][21] Dynactin also enhances the processivity of cytoplasmic dynein[22] and kinesin-2 motors.[23] Dynactin is involved in various processes like chromosome alignment and spindle organization[24] in cell division.[25] Dynactin contributes to mitotic spindle pole focusing through its binding to nuclear mitotic apparatus protein (NuMA).[26][27] Dynactin also targets to the kinetochore through binding between DCTN2/dynamitin and zw10 and has a role in mitotic spindle checkpoint inactivation.[28][29] During prometaphase, dynactin also helps target polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1) to kinetochores through cyclin dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1)-phosphorylated DCTN6/p27, which is involved in proper microtubule-kinetochore attachment and recruitment of spindle assembly checkpoint protein Mad1.[18] In addition, dynactin has been shown to play an essential role in maintaining nuclear position in Drosophila,[30] zebrafish[31] or in different fungi.[32][33] Dynein and dynactin concentrate on the nuclear envelope during the prophase and facilitate nuclear envelope breakdown via its DCTN4/p62 and Arp11 subunits.[16][34] Dynactin is also required for microtubule anchoring at centrosomes and centrosome integrity.[35] Destabilization of the centrosomal pool of dynactin also causes abnormal G1 centriole separation and delayed entry into S phase, suggesting that dynactin contributes to the recruitment of important cell cycle regulators to centrosomes.[36] In addition to transport of various organelles in the cytoplasm, dynactin also links kinesin II to organelles.[2]
