Regulation of motor activity of ciliary outer-arm dynein by the light chain 1; Implications from the structure of the light chain bound to the microtubule-binding domain of the heavy chain

Ciliary bending movements are powered by motor protein axonemal dyneins. They are largely classified into two groups, inner-arm dynein and outer-arm dynein. Outer-arm dynein, which is important for the elevation of ciliary beat frequency, has three heavy chains (α, β, and γ), two intermediate chains...
