Dynactin is required to maintain nuclear position within postmitotic Drosophila photoreceptor neurons.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Oct 2004

Whited Jessica L, Cassell Andre, Brouillette Monique, Garrity Paul A

Abstract excerpt

How a nucleus is positioned within a highly polarized postmitotic animal cell is not well understood. In this work, we demonstrate that the Dynactin complex (a regulator of the microtubule motor protein Dynein) is required to maintain the position of the nucleus within post-mitotic Drosophila mel...
