Microtubules are dynamic cytoskeletal filaments composed of αβ-tubulin heterodimers.
Historically, the dynamics of single tubulin interactions at the growing microtubule tip have …

Microtubules are key players in cellular self-organization, acting as structural scaffolds,
cellular highways, force generators and signalling platforms. Microtubules are polar …

The function of microtubules relies on their ability to switch between phases of growth and
shrinkage. A nucleotide-dependent stabilising cap at microtubule ends is thought to be lost …

Microtubules are cytoskeletal polymers whose function depends on their property to switch
between states of growth and shrinkage. Growing microtubules are thought to be stabilized …

Microtubules switch stochastically between phases of growth and shrinkage. The molecular
mechanism responsible for the end of a growth phase, an event called catastrophe, is still …

Microtubules are polar, dynamic filaments fundamental to many cellular processes. In vitro
reconstitution approaches with purified tubulin are essential to elucidate different aspects of …

Cytoskeletal filaments are structures of utmost importance to biological cells and organisms
due to their versatility and the significant functions they perform. These biopolymers are most …

Growing microtubules are protected from depolymerization by the presence of a GTP or
GDP/Pi cap. End-binding proteins of the EB1 family bind to the stabilizing cap, allowing …

Quantitative analysis of spindle dynamics in mitosis through fluorescence microscopy
requires tracking spindle elongation in noisy image sequences. Deterministic methods …
