| abstractText | The molecular motors dynein and kinesin are large protein complexes that convert the energy generated by ATP hydrolysis into directional movement along the microtubule cytoskeleton. They are required for a myriad of cellular processes, including mitotic spindle movement, axonal and vesicular transport, and ciliary beating. Recently, it has been shown that, in addition, they have a unique role during embryonic patterning: they are required to orient and establish the left-right axis in early vertebrate development. |
