		Formerly the head of the U.N. procurement department, Robertson was censured by the Volcker inquiry this past February based on testimony that appears to have come from a tainted U.N. source.
		In Robertson's case, the Volcker committee cited two such memoranda from Yakovlev, dated July 22 and July 25, 1996, which claimed, in effect, that Robertson — then head of Yakovlev's department — was bending the rules and overlooking a lower-priced bid from another firm in order to give the Iraq oil inspection contract to Saybolt.
		Robertson protested at the time that Yakovlev's notes appeared “self-serving,” and pointed out that if they were generated back in 1996, when the contracts were awarded, then both he and at least one other U.N. official in the chain of command should have received copies.

		The transport of newly-synthesised components from the ER to the Golgi apparatus is also thought to be dynein-driven.
		The motors involved are likely to be members of the kinesin superfamily, since they move membranes towards the rapidly growing (plus) ends of microtubules.
