Article Synopsis
  • Dynein motors help move the mitotic spindle to the division plane during cell division, with assistance from a microtubule-associated protein (MAP) called She1 in budding yeast.
  • She1 plays a crucial role in keeping the spindle near the bud neck, ensuring proper segregation of chromosomes into mother and daughter cells during anaphase.
  • The study shows that She1 regulates dynein activity by binding to specific dynein conformations and astral microtubules in the mother cell, thus controlling spindle movement toward the daughter cell.
