Dynein–Dynactin–NuMA clusters generate cortical spindle-pulling forces as a multi-arm ensemble

open access: yeseLife, 2018
To position the mitotic spindle within the cell, dynamic plus ends of astral microtubules are pulled by membrane-associated cortical force-generating machinery.

Towards a high‐resolution structure of dynactin

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2006
Dynactin is a multisubunit protein complex necessary for the function of the cytoplasmic molecular motor, dynein, found in all eukaryotic cells. The complex binds the motor and then carries it along microtubules along with numerous and diverse cargo molecules.

Hexameric NuMA:LGN structures promote multivalent interactions required for planar epithelial divisions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
LGN and NuMA link epithelial polarity sites with astral microtubules and associate with dynein, but the architecture of such cortical force-generating complexes is unknown.

Regulation of Dynactin by Palmitoylation

open access: yes
Neurons are large, complex cells that use a microtubule motor protein-based system for the fast transport of proteins and organelle cargo throughout long, complex projections. In output projections known as axons, cytoplasmic dynein transports cargo in the retrograde direction towards the cell body.
