Abstract

Dynein heavy chains (DHCs) are the main components of multisubunit motor ATPase complexes called dyneins. Axonemal dyneins provide the driving force for ciliary and flagellar motility. Recent molecular studies demonstrated that multiple DHC isoforms are produced by separate genes. We describe the isolation of five human axonemal DHC genes. Analysis of the human genomic clones revealed the existence of intronic sequences that were used to demonstrate that human axonemal DHC genes are located on different chromosomes. The cloned human DHC sequences were integrated into an evolutionary approach based on phylogenetic analysis. Tissue expression studies showed that these human axonemal DHCs are expressed in testis and/or trachea, two tissues with axonemal structures that can be altered in primary ciliary dyskinesia, making DHC genes strong candidates in the genesis of these human diseases.
