13 Plus 1: A 30-Year Perspective on Microtubule-Based Motility in Dictyostelium

摘要

Individual gene analyses of microtubule-based motor proteins in have provided a rough draft of its machinery for cytoplasmic organization and division. This review collates their activities and looks forward to what is next. A comprehensive approach that considers the collective actions of motors, how they balance rates and directions, and how they integrate with the actin cytoskeleton will be necessary for a complete understanding of cellular dynamics.
