This study, together with Van Gestel et al. [10] and Ni et al. [12], addresses differential motility of organelles along AFs and MTs. In vitro motility assay of mitochondria and Golgi vesicles from tobacco pollen tubes revealed fast and irregular movement along AFs and slow and continuous movement along MTs.

Plant J 56 (2008) 116-131. On the basis of in vivo observation of elongated leak leaf epidermal cells and pharmacological approach, the authors propose new mechanism by which MTs reorient from transverse to longitudinal orientation by actomyosin-based cytoplasmic streaming.

Using single molecule in vitro techniques, the authors uncover new mechanism by which two motors myosin and kinesin enhance their processivity. The electrostatic interaction of myosin V with MTs increases the processivity of kinesin if these two motors are present on the same cargo.
