Cloned (Comment) Organism
expression of full-length heavy chain and of 380 kDa truncated heavy chain with N-terminal His-FLAG-biotin tandem tags in Dictyostelium discoideum Dictyostelium discoideum

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information expression of full-length two-headed heavy chain and of 380 kDa truncated single-head heavy chain. Four to five moelcules of single-headed heavy chain are required for continuous microtubule sliding, while one molecule of two-headed heavy chain is enough for sliding. The two heads of a single full-length dynein communicate with each other to take processive steps along a microtubule Dictyostelium discoideum
