Nde1 promotes Lis1-mediated activation of dynein [PDF]
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.

Cryo-EM captures early intermediate steps in dynein activation by LIS1 [PDF]
Cytoplasmic dynein-1 (dynein) is an essential molecular motor in eukaryotic cells. Dynein primarily exists in an autoinhibited Phi state and requires conformational changes to assemble with its cofactors and form active transport complexes.

Cancer Stem Cells Shift Metabolite Acetyl-Coenzyme A to Abrogate the Differentiation of CD103<sup>+</sup> T Cells. [PDF]
Lei et al. demonstrate that cancer stem cells (CSCs) play a pivotal role in impairing the differentiation of CD103+ T cells in patients with non‐small‐cell lung cancer. The key mechanism involves CSC‐derived acetyl‐CoA, which disrupts CD103+ T cell differentiation by sequentially inducing acetylation and ubiquitination of the Blimp‐1 protein. Targeting

Pt-LIS1 participates nuclear deformation and acrosome formation via regulating Dynein-1 during spermatogenesis in Portunus trituberculatus [PDF]
Spermatogenesis involves complex dynamic mechanisms. Dynein-1 is a key carrier in cellular cargo transport, participating in nuclear deformation and acrosome formation during spermatogenesis.

Gene-specific long-term course, neurodevelopmental outcome and quality of life in patients with LIS1/PAFAH1B1-, DCX-, DYNC1H1-, TUBA1A- and TUBG1-related lissencephaly [PDF]
Background Classic lissencephaly is a malformation of cortical development that includes agyria and pachygyria. The major clinical symptoms are developmental impairment, muscular hypotonia, and drug-resistant epilepsy.

Capturing disease severity in LIS1-lissencephaly reveals proteostasis dysregulation in patient-derived forebrain organoids [PDF]
LIS1-lissencephaly is a neurodevelopmental disorder marked by reduced cortical folding and severe neurological impairment. Although all cases result from heterozygous mutations in the LIS1 gene, patients present a broad spectrum of severity. Here, we use
