Values shown are means for all particles that move faster than cytoplasmic flows (>0.1 μm/s) with the SEM in the parentheses. Statistically significant differences between the behavior of particles in wild-type and a given mutant are shown by asterisks: ∗p ≤ 0.05; ∗∗p ≤ 0.01; ∗∗∗p ≤ 0.001. Corresponding p values are shown in parentheses. WT: wild-type.
