Hydrolysis-deficient mosaic microtubules as faithful mimics of the GTP cap

Nature Communications
A critical feature of microtubules is their GTP cap, a stabilizing GTP-tubulin rich region at growing microtubule ends. Microtubules polymerized in the presence of GTP analogs or from GTP hydrolysis-deficient tubulin mutants have been used as GTP-cap ...
