Ciliobrevins as Tools for Studying Dynein Motor Function

Dyneins are a small class of molecular motors that bind to microtubules and walk towards their minus ends. They are essential for the transport and distribution of organelles, signaling complexes and cytoskeletal elements. In addition dyneins generate forces on microtubule arrays that power the beat...
