Function

Part of the dynactin complex that activates the molecular motor dynein for ultra-processive transport along microtubules. Together with dynein may be involved in spindle assembly and cytokinesis.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Cytoplasm; Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome; Chromosome, centromere, kinetochore; Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle; Cleavage furrow; Midbody
Tissue Specificity: Ubiquitously expressed. Highly expressed in muscle and pancreas and detected at lower levels in brain

Product Specifications

Subunit

Subunit of dynactin, a multiprotein complex part of a tripartite complex with dynein and a adapter, such as BICDL1, BICD2 or HOOK3. The dynactin complex is built around ACTR1A/ACTB filament and consists of an actin-related filament composed of a shoulder domain, a pointed end and a barbed end. Its length is defined by its flexible shoulder domain. The soulder is composed of 2 DCTN1 subunits, 4 DCTN2 and 2 DCTN3. The 4 DCNT2 (via N-terminus) bind the ACTR1A filament and act as molecular rulers to determine the length. The pointed end is important for binding dynein-dynactin cargo adapters. Consists of 4 subunits: ACTR10, DCNT4, DCTN5 and DCTN6. The barbed end is composed of a CAPZA1:CAPZB heterodimers, which binds ACTR1A/ACTB filament and dynactin and stabilizes dynactin
