Cells were scored as described in Fig. 2 (microtubule array), 3 (dynactin structure), 4 (Golgi), 5 (γ tubulin) and 6 (centrosomal Arp1 and p150), or for a pericentriolar focus of pericentrin (right-most column). The percentage of cells showing a normal phenotype is given for each overexpression condition; standard deviations are provided in the figures. Dynactin structure was analyzed on sucrose gradients (Fig. 3) and was scored as normal if endogenous p150Glued, p62, Arp1, and p24 cosedimented in a single peak at 20S. Dynactin shoulder/sidearm subunits are grouped into phenotypic classes (A, B, and C) as described in Discussion.
