Cellular cartography: Towards an atlas of the neuronal microtubule cytoskeleton by Malina K. Iwanski, Lukas C. Kapitein

“…The polar nature of microtubules is quintessential for their function, allowing them to serve as tracks for long-distance, directed intracellular transport by kinesin and dynein motors. Most of these motors move exclusively towards either the plus- or minus-end of a microtubule and some have been shown to have a preference for either dynamic or stable microtubules, those bearing a particular post-translational modification or those decorated by a specific microtubule-associated protein. …”

Cell-to-Cell Movement of Potexviruses: Evidence for a Ribonucleoprotein Complex Involving the Coat Protein and First Triple Gene Block Protein by Tony J. Lough, Natalie E. Netzler, Sarah J. Emerson, Paul Sutherland, Fiona Carr, David L. Beck, William J. Lucas, Richard L. S. Forster

“…These findings are consistent with a common mode of transport for potex-viruses, involving a non-virion RNP, and show that TGBp1 is the movement protein, whereas TGBp2 and TGBp3 are either involved in intracellular transport or interact with the cellular machinery/docking sites at the plasmodesmata.…”
