Dynein directs prophase centrosome migration to control the stem cell division axis in the developing C. elegans epidermis

This study shows dynein orients spindle migration in C. elegans epidermal stem cells, ensuring proper asymmetric division and tissue organization.

Anillin forms linear structures and facilitates furrow ingression after septin and formin depletion

The paper shows that anillin forms linear structures and facilitates cleavage furrow ingression in formin-depleted C. elegans cells by interacting with myosin II and lipids.

WDR60-mediated dynein-2 loading into cilia powers retrograde IFT and transition zone crossing

This study identifies WDR-60's role in dynein-2 loading into cilia, showing it is essential for retrograde IFT and transition zone crossing.

Self-assembly of the RZZ complex into filaments drives kinetochore expansion in the absence of microtubule attachment

This study shows that the RZZ complex self-assembles into filaments to drive kinetochore expansion when microtubules are not attached, facilitating SAC signaling and chromosome segregation.

TPXL-1 Activates Aurora A to Clear Contractile Ring Components from the Polar Cortex During Cytokinesis

The paper identifies TPXL-1 as a factor that activates Aurora A kinase to remove contractile ring components from cell poles during cytokinesis.

Dynactin Binding To Tyrosinated Microtubules Promotes Centrosome Centration In C. Elegans By Enhancing Dynein-Mediated Organelle Transport

This study shows that dynactin's binding to tyrosinated microtubules enhances dynein-mediated organelle transport, which is critical for centrosome centration in C. elegans zygotes.
