Lis1 is a key cofactor for the assembly of active cytoplasmic dynein complexes that transport cargo along microtubules. Lis1 binds to the AAA+ ring and stalk of dynein and slows dynein motility, but the underlying mechanism has remained unclear. Using single-molecule imaging and optical trapping assays, we investigated how Lis1 binding affects the motility and force generation of yeast dynein in vitro.
