Researchers from The Scripps Research Institute have discovered new information about how motor proteins called dyneins interact with another protein called dynactin to transport molecules to ...
The gross morphology of the protozoan microtubule axostyle of Saccinobaculus ambloaxostylus can now be described in macromolecular detail. The left-handed coil of the axostyle is seen to be dependent ...
Like poles support a tent, microtubules - hollow cylindrical structures made of tubulin protein - support eukaryotic cells. But microtubules provide more than just mechanical strength; they help ...
B(αβ) tubulin was obtained from a homogeneous class of microtubules, the incomplete B subfiber of sea urchin sperm flagellar doublet microtubules, by thermal fractionation. The thermally derived ...
Like poles support a tent, microtubules—hollow cylindrical structures made of tubulin protein—support eukaryotic cells. But microtubules provide more than just mechanical strength; they help prepare ...
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) represents a better choice compared to light-based microscopy methods for the stufy of microtubules. For instance, the AFM can be used in buffers to image samples at a ...
Microtubules both help maintain cell shape and form the basis of a large transportation network that transfers molecules within cells (Fig. 1). Tau-family microtubule-associated proteins (tau-MAPs) ...
In a new study published online in the open access journal PLoS Biology, Philipp Niethammer, Eric Karsenti, and colleagues investigate the regulation of microtubule dynamics via application of their ...
Proteins containing disordered domains perform many important cellular functions. My lab currently has two main projects, one to dissect the role of tubulin's C-terminal tail in microtubule structure ...
