Abstract excerpt
The dynein light intermediate chain (LIC) is a subunit unique to the cytoplasmic form of dynein, but how it contributes to dynein function is not fully understood. Previous work has established that the LIC homodimer binds directly to the dynein heavy chain and may mediate the attachment of dynein to centrosomes and other cargoes. Here, we report our characterization of the LIC in Drosophila. Unlike vertebrates,...
