Biochemical and immunochemical analysis of rat brain dynamin interaction with microtubules and organelles in vivo and in vitro.

Abstract: Abstract. We have purified a 100-kD rat brain protein that has microtubule cross-linking activity in vitro, and have determined that it is dynamin, a putative microtubule-associated motility protein. We find that dynamin appears to be specific to neuronal tissue where it is present in both soluble and particulate tissue fractions. In the cytosol it is abundant, representing as much as 1.5 % of the total extractable protein. Dynamin appears to be in particulate material due to association with a distinct subcel… Show more

“…Since dynamin is substantially a neuronal protein (Scaife and Margolis, 1990;Nakata et al, 1993), it might be argued that such dynamin dependent coupling processes might occur only in neurons. Recently, however, a dynamin homolog, dynamin 2, has been discovered (Cook et al, 1994) which has widespread tissue distribution, so it is now possible to imagine similar functions occurring in a variety of tissues.…”

“…Three mammalian dynamin isoforms are known (1,3,9). DynaminϪ1 is expressed only in neurons (10,11), dynaminϪ2 is ubiquitously expressed (11,12), while dynaminϪ3 is restricted primarily to the testes (13). Each isoform has multiple domains.…”

“…The mammalian brain dynamin was exclusively expressed in neurons (Scaife & Margolis, 1990), preferentially after postnatal day 7 (Nakata et al, 1991). This neuron-specific isoform is termed dynamin 1 after two other isoforms with different tissue distributions were identified.…”
