1. Dynein
   Dynein: A family of microtubule motor proteins that derive energy from ATP (adenosine triphosphatase) activity. The dyneins also form arms on the outer tubules of cilia and flagella. The dynein motor, a cellular complex believed to be composed of 12 distinct protein parts, performs fundamental trans...

2. dynein
   Large multimeric protein (600-800 kD) with ATPase activity; constitutes the side arms of the outer microtubule doublets in the ciliary axoneme and is responsible for the sliding. Probably (together with kinesin) involved in microtubule-associated movement elsewhere. Cytoplasmic dynein is MAP-Ic.

7. Dynein
   `Dynein` is a motor protein (also called molecular motor or motor molecule) in cells which converts the chemical energy contained in ATP into the mechanical energy of movement. Dynein transports various cellular cargo by "walking" along cytoskeletal microtubules towards the minus-end of th...
