Distinct molecular cues ensure a robust microtubule-dependent nuclear positioning in the Drosophila oocyte
Asymmetric nuclear positioning in the fruit fly oocyte is essential for the correct localization of axis determinants. Here, the authors show that different microtubule-dependent mechanisms contribute to nuclear transport and ensure the robustness of nuclear positioning.
