title: Lymphocyte cytotoxicity: tug-of-war on microtubules.
abstract: Lymphocyte cytotoxicity is essential in immune defense. In this issue of Blood, Kurowska and colleagues define a Rab27a/Slp3/kinesin-1 complex that facilitates anterograde microtubule transport of lytic granules, representing a critical step in lymphocyte granule exocytosis and cytotoxicity.
