Dyneins

Dyneins are motor proteins that move along microtubules inside cells, acting like tiny engines. They convert chemical energy from ATP into mechanical work, transporting various cellular components such as organelles, vesicles, and even chromosomes during cell division. Dyneins are essential for maintaining cell organization, facilitating intracellular transport, and supporting processes like cilia and flagella movement. Their activity ensures that materials are distributed efficiently within the cell, contributing to overall cell health and function.
