Cytoplasmic dynein is a vital microtubule-based motor protein that drives retrograde intracellular transport, supporting essential cellular functions ranging from organelle positioning to cell ...

The cell cytoskeleton is modulated by motor proteins, known as dyneins, that generate force and movement on microtubules to control a wealth of biological processes, including motility, cell division, ...

Researchers capture first-of-its-kind video of dynein–Lis1 protein interaction, supporting future drug development for neurological disorders. Our cells rely on microscopic highways and specialized ...

University of Michigan researchers have uncovered new details of the process that HIV uses to hijack cells' transportation systems for its own survival. In addition to overturning a decades-old theory ...

By matching these proteins to those in a comprehensive mouse protein database, the researchers identified them and their functions. Dr. Zhao said several of RS3's proteins are involved in placing or ...
