LIS1 and NDEL1 coordinate the plus-end-directed transport of cytoplasmic dynein

Abstract: LIS1 was first identified as a gene mutated in human classical lissencephaly sequence. LIS1 is required for dynein activity, but the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that LIS1 suppresses the motility of cytoplasmic dynein on microtubules (MTs), whereas NDEL1 releases the blocking effect of LIS1 on cytoplasmic dynein. We demonstrate that LIS1, cytoplasmic dynein and MT fragments comigrate anterogradely. When LIS1 function was suppressed by a blocking antibody, anterograde movement… Show more

“…Rab6a releases LIS1 from the LIS1-dynein idling complex to allow the resumption of dynein motor activity. On the other hand, NDEL1s are also required for the activation of dynein that is bound with LIS1 as we reported previously 9 . In our present model, Rab6a adequately releases LIS1 from dynein, resulting in LIS1-free dynein molecules.…”

“…We therefore applied FCCS to examine whether dynein and Rab6a-GTP are cis-interacting in DRG neurons from postnatal mice. In the DRG neurons, each MT within the array is particularly oriented with its assemblyfavoured plus end directed away from the cell body 9 . First, we examined the subcelluar localization of Rab6a by immunocytochemistry using a specific antibody and expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-Rab6a in the DRG neurons.…”

“…However, Lis1 was not required for dynein end tracking in a minimal in vitro reconstitution (Duellberg et al , 2014), raising the question as to why Lis1 is needed for dynein end tracking in cells. Lis1 is a homodimeric 45 kDa protein that binds directly to the dynein motor domain (Mateja et al , 2006; Kardon & Vale, 2009), and was reported to induce a more strongly microtubule‐bound state of dynein (Yamada et al , 2008; McKenney et al , 2010; Torisawa et al , 2011), thereby increasing the force produced by dynein (McKenney et al , 2010; Reddy et al , 2016), and slowing down microtubule transport by surface‐immobilised dynein motors (Yamada et al , 2008; Torisawa et al , 2011; Wang et al , 2013). …”
