Gross et al. study the detailed kinetics of bidirectional microtubule-dependent lipid droplet motility in Drosophila embryos.
They find that when minus-end motility is perturbed with dynein mutants, a competing plus-end motility is also disrupted, rather than becoming more prominant.
Their findings suggest that microtubule minend...
