Polarized localization of kinesin-1 and RIC-7 drives axonal mitochondria anterograde transport

The paper identifies kinesin-1 and RIC-7 as polarized transport complexes at the leading end of mitochondria driving anterograde axonal transport in C. elegans.

Scaled-expansion of the membrane associated cytoskeleton requires conserved kinesin adaptors

The paper identifies kinesin adaptors that mediate spectrin transport and lattice expansion during axon stretch-growth.
