Randomness in microtubule dynamics: an error that requires correction or an inherent plasticity required for normal cellular function?
Y Ilan - Cell Biology International, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Microtubules (MTs) play roles in regulating the mechanical structure and dynamics of cells.
While MTs appear to be highly ordered structures, recent data suggest some randomness in …

How signals of calcium ions initiate the beats of cilia and flagella
Cilia and flagella are cell organelles serving basic roles in cellular motility. Ciliary movement
is performed by a sweeping-like repeated bending motion, which gives rise to a self …
