Load-induced enhancement of Dynein force production by LIS1–NudE in vivo and in vitro
Transport of large cargo through the cytoplasm can encounter physical impediments which should be overcome. Here the authors show that lipid droplets constrained by an optical trap respond with an increase in dynein-mediated force that is dependent on ...

LIS1 Is Critical for Axon Integrity in Adult Mice
Mutations in human LIS1 cause lissencephaly, a severe developmental brain malformation. Although most studies focus on development, LIS1 is also expressed in adult mouse tissues. We previously induced LIS1 knock-out (iKO) in adult mice using a Cre-Lox approach with an actin promoter driving CreERT2 expression.

A LIS1/NUDEL/Cytoplasmic Dynein Heavy Chain Complex in the Developing and Adult Nervous System
Mutations in mammalian Lis1 (Pafah1b1) result in neuronal migration defects. Several lines of evidence suggest that LIS1 participates in pathways regulating microtubule function, but the molecular mechanisms are unknown.

Structural and Diffusion MRI Analyses With Histological Observations in Patients With Lissencephaly
The development of cortical convolutions, gyri and sulci, is a complex process that takes place during prenatal development. Lissencephaly, a rare genetic condition characterized by the lack of cortical convolutions, offers a model to look into ...

![Figure][1] Endosomes (green) move in normal fungi (top) but stay put if Lis1 is absent (bottom). Egan et al. clarify the role of the dynein co-factor Lis1 in cargo transport. The molecular motor dynein ferries cargoes toward the minus ends of microtubules, typically toward the nucleus.
