https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynactin
Dynactin is a 23 subunit protein complex that acts as a co-factor for the microtubule motor cytoplasmic dynein-1. It is built around a short filament of actin related protein-1 (Arp1). Discovery Dynactin was identified as an activity that allowed purified cytoplasmic dynein to move membrane vesicles along microtubule...
