Abstract


Cytoplasmic dynein is an enormous minus end-directed microtubule motor. Rather than existing as bare tracks, microtubules are bound by numerous microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) that have the capacity to affect various cellular functions, including motor-mediated transport. One such MAP is SHE1, a dynein effector that polarizes dynein-mediated spindle movements in budding yeast. Here, we characterize the molecular basis by which SHE1 affects dynein, providing the first such insight into which a MAP can modulate motor motility. We find that SHE1 affects the ATPase rate, microtubule-binding affinity, and stepping behavior of dynein, and that microtubule binding by SHE1 is required for its effects on dynein motility. Moreover, we find that SHE1 directly contacts the microtubule-binding domain of dynein, and that their interaction is sensitive to the nucleotide-bound state of the motor. Our data support a model in which simultaneous interactions between the microtubule and dynein enables SHE1 to directly affect dynein motility.
