Beyond uniformity: Exploring the heterogeneous and dynamic nature of the microtubule lattice

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology, 2023
A fair amount of research on microtubules since their discovery in 1963 has focused on their dynamic tips. In contrast, the microtubule lattice was long believed to be highly regular and static, and consequently received far less attention.

Xenopus meiotic microtubule-associated interactome. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
In metazoan oocytes the assembly of a microtubule-based spindle depends on the activity of a large number of accessory non-tubulin proteins, many of which remain unknown. In this work we isolated the microtubule-bound proteins from Xenopus eggs.

MAPping out distribution routes for kinesin couriers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In the crowded environment of eukaryotic cells, diffusion is an inefficient distribution mechanism for cellular components. Long-distance active transport is required and is performed by molecular motors including kinesins.

GTSE1 is a microtubule plus-end tracking protein that regulates EB1-dependent cell migration. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The regulation of cell migration is a highly complex process that is often compromised when cancer cells become metastatic. The microtubule cytoskeleton is necessary for cell migration, but how microtubules and microtubule-associated proteins regulate ...

Microtubule-associated protein 1B [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2001
Myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) is expressed in periaxonal membranes of myelinating glia where it is believed to function in glia–axon interactions by binding to a component of the axolemma. Experiments involving Western blot overlay and coimmunoprecipitation demonstrated that MAG binds to a phosphorylated neuronal isoform of microtubule ...

Genes of ancient microtubule-stabilizing proteins traveled through pre-Cambrian Echinoidea to advanced life forms of dry land and ended up in the human genome as the fusion oncogenes-oncoproteins eml1/EML1-abl/ABL, and eml4/EML4-alk/ALK [PDF]

open access: yesInvertebrate Survival Journal, 2016
The genes eml1/4 of the Echinodermata microtubule-stabilizing gene product-like 1/4 proteins EML1/4 of the sea cucumbers (Holothuroidea) traveled through the evolutionary scale up to the human genome.

Regulation of Microtubule Dynamics in Axon Regeneration: Insights from C. elegans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The capacity of an axon to regenerate is regulated by its external environment and by cell-intrinsic factors. Studies in a variety of organisms suggest that alterations in axonal microtubule (MT) dynamics have potent effects on axon regeneration.

CCDC74A/B are K-fiber crosslinkers required for chromosomal alignment

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2019
Background Spindle microtubule organization, regulated by microtubule-associated proteins, is critical for cell division. Proper organization of kinetochore fiber (K-fiber), connecting spindle poles and kinetochores, is a prerequisite for precise ...

Microtubule-associated protein 1B [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2002
Giant axonal neuropathy (GAN), an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in GAN, is characterized cytopathologically by cytoskeletal abnormality. Based on its sequence, gigaxonin contains an NH2-terminal BTB domain followed by six kelch repeats, which are believed to be important for protein–protein interactions (Adams, J., R.
