Dyneins act as molecular motors using energy derived from the hydrolysis of ATP to translocate towards the minus-end of microtubules. From the initial identification of dynein as an ATPase in Tetrahymena cilia and sea urchin sperm flagella, these enzymes and their components are now known or suggested to be involved in such varied processes as mitosis, left–right asymmetry during mammalian development, sperm development, the movement of membranous organelles, rhodopsin trafficking and intraflagellar transport. Classically, dyneins can be divided into three major classes dependent primarily on subcellular localization: these are the dyneins of the inner and outer arms of flagella, and cytoplasmic dynein. All of these enzymes are involved in the generation of force relative to a microtubule (Figure 1). Inner-and outer-arm dyneins generate complex flagellar waveforms by producing differential lateral forces between adjacent microtubules. The outer arms transduce a substantial proportion of the total force, while the inner arms are responsible for the fine control of the waveform. Conversely, cytoplasmic dynein has a much more varied role. It is involved in the movement of organelles and polarity determinants as well as retrograde transport in axons and maintenance of the Golgi apparatus. Cytoplasmic dynein also cross-links
