Functional Families

Overview of the Structural Clusters (SC) and Functional Families within this CATH Superfamily. Clusters with a representative structure are represented by a filled circle.

Superfamily: Dynein motor heavy chain, linker domain, subdomain 3

Dyneins are microtubule-based AAA+ motor complexes that power ciliary beating, cell division, cell migration and intracellular transportPMID:22398446 . The 380kDa motor unit of dynein belongs to the AAA class of chaperone-like ATPases PMID:11250194. The motor domain comprises the AAA+ ring and three additional structural units: the linker, stalk/strut (both of which are major functional units of the heavy chain) and C sequence. This entry represents subdomain 3 of the linker PMID:22398446. PMID:11250194 PMID:22398446
