Eukaryotic cells create internal order by using protein motors to transport molecules and
organelles along cytoskeletal tracks. Recent genomic and functional studies suggest that …

Kinesin superfamily proteins (KIFs) are key players or 'hub'proteins in the intracellular
transport system, which is essential for cellular function and morphology. The KIF …

In all eukaryotes, morphogenesis of the microtubule cytoskeleton into a bipolar spindle is
required for the faithful transmission of the genome to the two daughter cells during division …

Mitochondria are vital organelles that perform a variety of fundamental functions ranging
from the synthesis of ATP through to being intimately involved in programmed cell death …

Chloroplast morphology changes during immunity, giving rise to tubule-like structures
known as stromules. Stromules extend along microtubules and anchor to actin filaments …

Armadillo (Arm) repeat proteins contain tandem copies of a degenerate protein sequence
motif that forms a conserved three-dimensional structure. Animal Arm repeat proteins …

The cytoskeleton plays important roles in plant cell shape determination by influencing the
patterns in which cell wall materials are deposited. Cortical microtubules are thought to …

The cytoskeleton coordinates all aspects of growth in plant cells, including exocytosis of
membrane and wall components during cell expansion. This review seeks to integrate …

Cortical microtubules have long been hypothesized to regulate the oriented deposition of
cellulose microfibrils. However, the molecular mechanisms of how microtubules direct the …

In all eukaryotic cells, molecular motor proteins play essential roles in spindle assembly and
function. The homotetrameric kinesin-5 motors in particular generate outward forces that …
