The directed movement of substances along cytoskeletal elements such as microfilaments or microtubules within a cell. The directed movement of organelles and other particles along microtubules, mediated by motor proteins. The net movement of nuclei towards one another as a prelude to karyogamy in organisms undergoing conjugation with cellular fusion. The directed movement of the nucleus to a specific location within a cell. The directed movement of the nucleus. The cell cycle process whereby oscillatory movement of the nucleus during meiotic prophase I occurs. This oscillatory movement is led by an astral microtubule array emanating from the spindle pole body, and driven by the microtubule motor cytoplasmic dynein. It is known to play a central role in meiotic recombination and homologous chromosome pairing; as observed in S. pombe. The microtubule-mediated movement of the nucleus that is required for the movement of cells along radial glial fibers as a component of the process of cerebral cortex glial-mediated radial cell migration. The directed movement of the nucleus along microtubules within the cell, mediated by motor proteins. Movement of organelles, other microtubules and other particles along microtubules, mediated by motor proteins.
