Morphogenetic forces planar polarize LGN/Pins in the embryonic head during Drosophila gastrulation
eLife, 2022 Spindle orientation is often achieved by a complex of Partner of Inscuteable (Pins)/LGN, Mushroom Body Defect (Mud)/Nuclear Mitotic Apparatus (NuMa), Gαi, and Dynein, which interacts with astral microtubules to rotate the spindle.
