dyneindynactinmediated
Dynein/dynactin mediated transport refers to a fundamental cellular process involving the movement of organelles, vesicles, and protein complexes along microtubules within eukaryotic cells. This transport is primarily carried out by the molecular motor protein cytoplasmic dynein, which is often found in association with a multi-subunit complex called dynactin. Dynactin acts as a crucial adaptor, linking dynein to its cargo and also playing a role in regulating dynein's activity and processivity.
The dynein motor protein utilizes ATP hydrolysis to generate force, enabling it to "walk" along the polarized
