Structure and regulation of the microtubule plus-end tracking protein Kar9
In Structure, the Barral (IBC) and Steinmetz (PSI) labs provide structural insights in the microtubule-tracking protein Kar9, revealing how regulation of its dimerization orients the mitotic spindle in dividing cells. This study uncovers Kar9’s relationships to metazoan MACF/ACF7/Shot and PRC1.
