The mitotic spindle has a crucial role in ensuring the accurate segregation of chromosomes
into the two daughter cells during cell division, which is paramount for maintaining genome …

In this short review, we give an overview of microtubule nucleation within cells. It is nearly 30
years since the discovery of γ-tubulin, a member of the tubulin superfamily essential for …

Neurons display a highly polarized microtubule network that mediates trafficking throughout
the extensive cytoplasm and is crucial for neuronal differentiation and function. In newborn …

The function of microtubules depends on their arrangement into highly ordered arrays.
Spatio-temporal control over the formation of new microtubules and regulation of their …

Accurate segregation of chromosomes during mitosis depends on the correct assembly of
the mitotic spindle, a bipolar structure composed mainly of microtubules. The augmin …

Non‐motile primary cilium is an antenna‐like structure whose defect is associated with a
wide range of pathologies, including developmental disorders and cancer. Although …

The mitotic spindle is structurally and functionally defined by its main component, the
microtubules (MTs). The MTs making up the spindle have various functions, organization …

Organisms with closed or open mitosis have differentially evolved various gamma-tubulin
complex (γ-TuC) recruiting factors to organize diverse cellular microtubule (MT) arrays …

In mitosis the cell assembles the bipolar spindle, a microtubule (MT)-based apparatus that
segregates the duplicated chromosomes into two daughter cells. Most animal cells enter …

Organization of microtubules into ordered arrays involves spatial and temporal regulation of
microtubule nucleation. Here, we show that acentrosomal microtubule nucleation in plant …
