Cytoplasmic dynein nucleates microtubules to organize them into radial arrays in vivo

Numerous evidence demonstrates that dynein is crucial for organization of microtubules (MTs) into radial arrays, but its exact function in this process is unclear. Here, we studied the role of cytoplasmic dynein in MT radial array formation in the absence of the centrosome. We found that dynein is a...
