Interplay between kinesin-1 and cortical dynein during axonal outgrowth and microtubule organization in Drosophila neurons
In this study, we investigated how microtubule motors organize microtubules in Drosophila neurons. We showed that, during the initial stages of axon outgrowth, microtubules display mixed polarity and minus-end-out microtubules push the tip of the axon, consistent with kinesin-1 driving outgrowth by...
