Abstract excerpt
Cytoplasmic dynein is a minus-end-directed, microtubule-dependent motor protein complex. DhcA, cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain in Aspergillus oryzae, contained four P-loops involved in ATP binding which were conserved as in cytoplasmic dynein heavy chains of other organisms. The amino acid sequence of A. oryzae DhcA was similar to cytoplasmic dynein heavy chains from other organisms except for the N-terminus of...
