Abstract excerpt
Dynein is a minus-end-directed microtubule motor with critical roles in mitosis, membrane transport and intracellular transport. Several proteins regulate dynein activity, including dynactin, LIS1 (refs 2, 3) and NudEL (NudE-like). Here, we identify a NUDEL homologue in budding yeast and name it Ndl1. The ndl1delta null mutant shows decreased targeting of dynein to microtubule plus ends, an essential element of...
