Dynein ATPase (EC 3.6.4.2, dynein adenosine 5'-triphosphatase) is an enzyme with systematic name ATP phosphohydrolase (tubulin-translocating).[1][2][3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

ATP + H2O \rightleftharpoons ADP + phosphate

This enzyme is a multisubunit protein complex associated with microtubules.
