23 sie 2017 · Microtubule nucleation is stimulated and can be controlled by the following two principal activities: by providing a stable template (such as the γ-tubulin ring complex (γTuRC) or a severed...
Microtubule nucleation is controlled by the γ-tubulin ring complex (γTuRC) and related γ-tubulin complexes, providing spatial and temporal control over the initiation of microtubule growth.
1 paź 2012 · Temporal control of microtubule nucleation is achieved by coupling the regulation of nucleation site assembly and/or activation to cell cycle progression or a specific time point during a cellular differentiation program.
4 lip 2022 · The cellular functions of the microtubule (MT) cytoskeleton range from relatively simple to amazingly complex. Assembled from tubulin, a heterodimeric protein with α- and β-tubulin subunits, microtubules are long, hollow cylindrical filaments with inherent polarity.
19 kwi 2018 · Microtubules are dynamic polymers of αβ-tubulin that are essential for intracellular organization, organelle trafficking and chromosome segregation. Microtubule growth and shrinkage occur via...
24 maj 2021 · Interphase plant cells require microtubule-dependent microtubule nucleation to generate cortical microtubule networks at mixed angles, an arrangement that supports cell and leaf morphology, and to reorient their microtubule networks to alter the direction of plant growth in response to light.
18 sie 2021 · Most cellular microtubules are not static; they exhibit cycles of growth, shortening and regrowth. This energy-consuming process, termed dynamic instability 1, is essential for normal cell...
