Dynein associates with oskar mRNPs and is required for their efficient net plus-end localization in Drosophila oocytes.

Dynein associates with oskar mRNPs and is required for their efficient net plus-end localization in Drosophila oocytes.

In order for eukaryotic cells to function properly, they must establish polarity. The Drosophila oocyte uses mRNA localization to establish polarity and hence provides a genetically tractable model in which to study this process. The spatial restriction of oskar mRNA and its subsequent protein produ...
