Abstract excerpt
Previous studies of flagellar mutants have identified six axonemal polypeptides as components of a "dynein regulatory complex" (DRC). The DRC is though to coordinate the activity of the multiple flagellar dyneins, but its location within the axoneme has been unknown (Huang et al., 1982; Piperno et al., 1992). We have used improved chromatographic procedures (Kagami and Kamiya, 1992) and computer averaging of EM...
