Hexameric NuMA:LGN structures promote multivalent interactions required for planar epithelial divisions

LGN and NuMA link epithelial polarity sites with astral microtubules and associate with dynein, but the architecture of such cortical force-generating complexes is unknown. Here, the authors report the crystal structure of NuMA:LGN hetero-hexamers, and unveil their role in promoting the assembly of...
