Armadillo-repeat kinesin1 interacts with Arabidopsis atlastin RHD3 to move ER with plus-end of microtubules

Abstract

The architecture of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is shaped by both atlastin GTPases and the cytoskeleton. Here the authors show that ARK1, an armadillo repeat kinesin, interacts with the Arabidopsis atlastin RHD3 to guide ER tubule fusions via microtubules to generate a fine ER network.
