Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** DYNLT2 is a member of the dynein light chain family, which is essential for the assembly and function of the cytoplasmic dynein complex. This complex is composed of multiple subunits, including heavy chains (DYNC1H1-4), light chains (DYNC1I1-3), and intermediate chains (DYNC1I1-4). DYNLT2 is specifically associated with the Tctex-type subunit, which is distinct from the more commonly studied dynein heavy chains. The Tctex-type subunit is thought to play a crucial role in the regulation of dynein function and its interaction with other motor proteins. **Pathways and Functions:** DYNLT2 is involved in various cellular processes, including: 1. **Intraflagellar transport (IFT):** DYNLT2 is essential for the transport of cilia and flagella along microtubules, which is critical for sensory perception and motility. 2. **Organelle biogenesis and maintenance:** DYNLT2 is involved in the movement and positioning of organelles, such as peroxisomes and mitochondria, within the cell. 3. **Membrane trafficking:** DYNLT2 contributes to the transport of vesicles and cargo along microtubules, which is essential for cell signaling, protein secretion, and cell migration. 4. **Cilium assembly and maintenance:** DYNLT2 is required for the assembly and maintenance of cilia, which is critical for sensory perception and motility. **Clinical Significance:** DYNLT2 has been implicated in various human diseases, including: 1. **Cilia-related disorders:** Mutations in DYNLT2 have been associated with ciliary dyskinesia, a group of disorders characterized by impaired cilia function and motility. 2. **Neurological disorders:** DYNLT2 has been linked to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). 3. **Cancer:** DYNLT2 has been implicated in cancer progression and metastasis, particularly in epithelial cancers. 4. **Immune system disorders:** DYNLT2 has been linked to immune system disorders, such as autoimmune diseases and immunodeficiency disorders. In conclusion, DYNLT2 is a critical component of the cytoplasmic dynein complex, involved in various cellular processes, including intraflagellar transport, organelle biogenesis, and membrane trafficking. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various human diseases, highlighting the importance of this gene in human health and disease. Further research is necessary to fully elucidate the role of DYNLT2 in human disease and to develop therapeutic strategies for the treatment of these disorders.
