Kazrin is an endosomal adaptor for dynein/dynactin [PDF]
, 2021 Abstract Kazrin is a protein widely expressed in vertebrates whose depletion causes a myriad of developmental defects, in part derived from altered cell adhesion, impaired cell migration and failure to undergo Epidermal to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT).

Nde1 promotes Lis1-mediated activation of dynein
Nature Communications, 2023 Cytoplasmic dynein drives the motility and force generation functions towards the microtubule minus end. The assembly of dynein with dynactin and a cargo adaptor in an active transport complex is facilitated by Lis1 and Nde1/Ndel1.

NuMA recruits dynein activity to microtubule minus-ends at mitosis
eLife, 2017 To build the spindle at mitosis, motors exert spatially regulated forces on microtubules. We know that dynein pulls on mammalian spindle microtubule minus-ends, and this localized activity at ends is predicted to allow dynein to cluster microtubules into

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Upon mitotic entry, RTN4 relocalizes to the pericentrosomal region, forming a more tubular ER network around centrosomes. CDK1‐mediated phosphorylation of RTN4 increases its interaction with Rab11 GTPase, facilitating dynein‐dependent transport of RTN4 to the pericentrosomal region.

Dynactin: Coordinating Motors with Opposite Inclinations [PDF]
Current Biology, 2003 In eukaryotic cells, many organelles are transported bidirectionally along microtubules by kinesin and dynein. These opposite-polarity motors appear to be coordinated to avoid interfering with each other's function. New work has provided the first molecular insight into how such coordination might occur.

ATL2 Recruits TRAK1 to Promote Mitochondrial Transport at ER–Mitochondria Contact Sites
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Mitochondrial transport and distribution are crucial for cellular homeostasis, yet whether and how they are regulated by endoplasmic reticulum (ER)–mitochondria contact sites remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that the ER protein atlastin‐2 (ATL2) orchestrates mitochondrial transport and distribution by promoting assembly of the transport ...

Recruitment of two dyneins to an mRNA-dependent Bicaudal D transport complex
eLife, 2018 We investigated the role of full-length Drosophila Bicaudal D (BicD) binding partners in dynein-dynactin activation for mRNA transport on microtubules. Full-length BicD robustly activated dynein-dynactin motility only when both the mRNA binding protein ...

RUFY3 links Arl8b and JIP4-Dynein complex to regulate lysosome size and positioning
Nature Communications, 2022 Lysosomes move along microtubule tracks, and Arl8b is known to stimulate their anterograde transport. Here, the authors identified RUFY3 as an Arl8b effector that interacts with dynein-dynactin to drive retrograde transport and perinuclear lysosome ...
