Scope and Contents

Contents

Microtubules (MTs) are key components of the cytoskeleton and play a central role in cell division and development. MT assembly is known to be associated with a structural change in [Formula: see text]-tubulin dimers from kinked to straight conformations. How GTP binding renders individual dimers polymerization-competent, however, is still unclear....
