Dynein
Dynein is a class of protein found in biological cells and is involved in their reproduction. Dyneins can be divided into two groups: cytoplasmic dynein and axonemal dynein.
The axonemal dynein acts to activate a sliding within flagellar microtubules, whereas the cytoplasmic dynein is implicated in moving toward the negative end of a microtubule.
