Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Atkin - 1 , the only Kinesin-1 member of Arabidopsis thaliana , plays a role during female gametogenesis through regulation of nuclear division cycles. Kinesins are microtubule-dependent motor proteins found in eukaryotic organisms. They constitute a superfamily that can be further classified into at least 14 families. In the Kinesin-1 family, members from animal and fungi play roles in long-distance...
