Cryo‐EM reveals the complex architecture of dynactin's shoulder region and pointed end

Dynactin is a 1.1 MDa complex that activates the molecular motor dynein for ultra‐processive transport along microtubules. In order to do this, it forms a tripartite complex with dynein and a coiled‐coil adaptor. Dynactin consists of an actin‐related filament whose length is defined by its flexible...
