A variety of names has been used in the literature for the subunits of cytoplasmic dynein complexes. Thus, there is a strong need for a more definitive consensus statement on nomenclature. This is especially important for mammalian cytoplasmic dyneins, many subunits of which are encoded by multiple genes. We propose names for the mammalian cytoplasmic dynein subunit genes and proteins that reflect the phylogenetic relationships of the genes and the published studies clarifying the functions of the polypeptides. This nomenclature recognizes the two distinct cytoplasmic dynein complexes and has the flexibility to accommodate the discovery of new subunits and isoforms.6 a; P3 O2 N' p0 T% _' J7 I
4 m% _& B7 y, W) z$ K o- GCytoplasmic dynein is the major microtubule minus end–directed motor protein of the cell; it is involved in many essential cellular processes such as membrane trafficking and mitosis. The cytoplasmic dynein complex is resolved on SDS–polyacrylamide gels into subunit polypeptides of 530 (dynein heavy chains), 74 (intermediate chains), 53–59 (light intermediate chains), and 10–14 kD (light chains). Since mammalian cytoplasmic dynein was first identified and characterized (Paschal et al., 1987), further understanding of the subunit complexity of cytoplasmic dyneins has emerged (for review see Vallee et al., 2004; Pfister et al., 2005). Only a single heavy chain gene has been identified for the initially described form of cytoplasmic dynein, but two intermediate chain and two light intermediate chain genes have been found (Mikami et al., 1993; Zhang et al., 1993; Gill et al., 1994; Hughes et al., 1995; Vaughan and Vallee, 1995). Three light chain families have been identified, which appear to be shared among some, but not all, cytoplasmic and axonemal dynein complexes (King et al., 1996a,b, 1998; Bowman et al., 1999; Wilson et al., 2001). Also, it is now known that there are two distinct cytoplasmic dynein complexes: the originally characterized complex with six subunits and a second distinct complex with two subunits that have been identified to date〞a unique heavy chain and a unique light intermediate chain (Gibbons et al., 1994; Tanaka et al., 1995; Vaughan et al., 1996; Grissom et al., 2002; Mikami et al., 2002). Information about the 13 cytoplasmic dynein polypeptides has come from various sources, and individual gene and protein names have not been coordinated in a systematic manner. This article introduces a nomenclature that has been updated from Vaughan et al. (1996) for use with both mouse and human genes and suggests common names for the two cytoplasmic dynein complexes and their diverse subunits.; F* `' Y( S) n9 l6 W" v( k
$ p, y o0 a: {" ]& E5 QTable I shows the recommended nomenclature for mammalian cytoplasmic dynein genes and proteins. Although based upon the earlier terminology that was used for dynein genes by the human and mouse genome projects, this revised nomenclature is modified to better reflect the phylogenetic relationships of the dynein genes and the published studies clarifying the functions of dynein subunits. This recommended nomenclature has been endorsed by the Human Genome Organization Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC) and the International Committee on Standardized Nomenclature for Mice. Moreover, it conforms to the guidelines of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC)-International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Joint Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature. 5 l" q- M3 \8 S8 g8 X 3 Y Y% S: Q9 T; E d!

The most obvious nomenclature change is that two cytoplasmic dynein complexes are now recognized: cytoplasmic dynein 1 and 2. Thus, the designations of their subunits start with DYNC1 and DYNC2, respectively. We retain the convention of grouping the subunits of these complexes into polypeptide families of similarly sized proteins: heavy (H), intermediate (I), light intermediate (LI), and light (L) chains. The cytoplasmic dynein 1 complex has three distinct light chain families, and to systematize the light chain nomenclature, additional letters are used to distinguish the three families: Tctex1 (T), Roadblock (RB), and LC8 (L). These light chains only have DYN as their initial designation because of the abundant evidence that light chains are shared with several axonemal dyneins (King, 2002). Individual members of all the gene families are assigned numbers as before. We also retain the practice of designating the alternatively spliced isoforms of the intermediate chain gene products with letters, which is in accordance with IUPAC standards (Vaughan et al., 1996). As appropriate, letters can also be used to distinguish alternatively spliced isoforms of members of other gene families. We use standard human and mouse gene formatting: italicized uppercase letters for human gene names (for example, DYNC1H1) and italicized initial uppercase followed by lowercase letters for mice (Dync1h1). For the formal names of proteins of both species, the same names in nonitalicized uppercase letters (DYNC1H1) are used. 2 Z+ i$ D- s$ W/ n" F0 L) m 2 e8 f+ s5 x9 H. SAlthough it is recommended that the subunits be referred to by using their formal names in publications, the rich history of common names and the superficial similarities of some of the formal names are recognized. Thus, it is anticipated that a dynein polypeptide subunit will be identified at first mention with its formal name followed by a common name in parentheses, with subsequent mentions to the common name only: for example, DYNC1I2 (cytoplasmic dynein 1 intermediate chain 2). Also, a hyphen might be used on subsequent mentions to minimize a potential confusion between the letter I and number 1 in some fonts (for example, DYNC1-I2). However, it is highly recommended that the light chains in the LC8 and Roadblock families not be referred to by the aliases dynein light chain 1, 2, 2A, and 2B, as these names are a source of considerable confusion. We suggest that portions of this nomenclature system be adapted for cytoplasmic dyneins of other species as appropriate. In the future, this nomenclature scheme may also be readily adapted to incorporate additional cytoplasmic dynein components (should they be identified) as well as the genes and proteins of axonemal dyneins (Pazour et al., 2005).5 e( @' j; J; N% {% j7 o& h
