Effect of viscoelastic medium on wave propagation along protein microtubules
AIP Advances, 2019 An Orthotropic Kelvin-like model is developed here to study wave dispersion relation along microtubules when they are embedded in viscoelastic material.

Mammalian kinetochores count attached microtubules in a sensitive and switch-like manner. [PDF]
, 2019 The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) prevents anaphase until all kinetochores attach to the spindle. Each mammalian kinetochore binds many microtubules, but how many attached microtubules are required to turn off the checkpoint, and how the kinetochore ...

The emerging role of microtubules in invasion plasticity
Frontiers in Oncology, 2023 The ability of cells to switch between different invasive modes during metastasis, also known as invasion plasticity, is an important characteristic of tumor cells that makes them able to resist treatment targeted to a particular invasion mode.

The regulatory effect of Tau protein on polymerization of MCF7 microtubules in vitro
Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2019 Growing evidence continues to point toward the critical role of beta tubulin isotypes in regulating some intracellular functions. Changes that were observed in the microtubules’ intrinsic dynamics, the way they interact with some chemotherapeutic agents,

A Stochastic Multiscale Model That Explains the Segregation of Axonal Microtubules and Neurofilaments in Neurological Diseases. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2015 The organization of the axonal cytoskeleton is a key determinant of the normal function of an axon, which is a long thin projection of a neuron.

Chlamydia Hijacks ARF GTPases To Coordinate Microtubule Posttranslational Modifications and Golgi Complex Positioning. [PDF]
, 2017 The intracellular bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis develops in a parasitic compartment called the inclusion. Posttranslationally modified microtubules encase the inclusion, controlling the positioning of Golgi complex fragments around the inclusion.

Cell Motility and the Cytoskeleton, 1999 The regulation of microtubule stability by severing of the polymer along its length is a newly appreciated and potentially important mechanism for controlling microtubule function. Microtubule severing occurs in living cells, but direct observation of this event is infrequent.

CLASP promotes microtubule bundling in metaphase spindle independently of Ase1/PRC1 in fission yeast
Biology Open, 2019 Microtubules in the mitotic spindle are organised by microtubule-associated proteins. In the late stage of mitosis, spindle microtubules are robustly organised through bundling by the antiparallel microtubule bundler Ase1/PRC1. In early mitosis, however,
