ENTRY EC 3.6.1.33
NAME Dynein ATPase
CLASS Hydrolases
Acting on acid anhydrides
In phosphorus-containing anhydrides
SYSNAME Dynein ATP phosphohydrolase (tubulin-translocating)
REACTION ATP + H2O = ADP + Orthophosphate
SUBSTRATE ATP
H2O
PRODUCT ADP
Orthophosphate
COMMENT This protein forms the dynein arms that link the microtubules of
cilia and induce their relative motion. The intrinsic ATPase
activity of dynein is much higher than that of myosin, and is only
increased by 30by interaction with tubulin.
Formerly included with EC 3.6.1.3.
