Agrin regulates CLASP2-mediated capture of microtubules at the neuromuscular junction synaptic membrane [PDF]

, 2012
Agrin is the major factor mediating the neuronal regulation of postsynaptic structures at the vertebrate neuromuscular junction, but the details of how it orchestrates this unique three-dimensional structure remain unknown.

Anaphase Chromosomes in Crane-Fly Spermatocytes Treated With Taxol (Paclitaxel) Accelerate When Their Kinetochore Microtubules Are Cut: Evidence for Spindle Matrix Involvement With Spindle Forces

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2018
Various experiments have indicated that anaphase chromosomes continue to move after their kinetochore microtubules are severed. The chromosomes move poleward at an accelerated rate after the microtubules are cut but they slow down 1–3 min later and move ...

Electrostatically biased binding of kinesin to microtubules [PDF]

, 2011
The minimum motor domain of kinesin-1 is a single head. Recent evidence suggests that such minimal motor domains generate force by a biased binding mechanism, in which they preferentially select binding sites on the microtubule that lie ahead in the ...

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,
