This study shows TMEM55B and TMEM55A regulate lysosome distribution in neurons by affecting motor protein transport, with TMEM55B specifically promoting anterograde transport of LAMP1-positive organelles.

This study shows that removing the ciliary gate allows axoneme extension in IFT-A-deficient cilia by enabling passive diffusion and EV release of stalled IFT machinery.

This study identifies CDR2 as a dynein adaptor recruited by kinectin to regulate ER sheet organization and shows its role in centrosomal clustering and ER sheet stacking.

This study determines the cryo-EM structure of dynein-dynactin with LIS1 and JIP3, revealing how these regulators enable complex formation and function.

This study shows that motor activity of non-muscle myosin II is essential for cytokinesis, independent of actin flows, by analyzing C. elegans embryos with motor mutants.
