Severing enzymes amplify microtubule arrays through lattice GTP-tubulin incorporation by Vemu, Annapurna, Szczesna, Ewa, Zehr, Elena A, Spector, Jeffrey O, Grigorieff, Nikolaus, Deaconescu, Alexandra M, Roll-Mecak, Antonina

“…Spastin and katanin sever and destabilize microtubules. Paradoxically, despite their destructive activity they increase microtubule mass in vivo. We combined…”

Structure and Dynamics of Single-isoform Recombinant Neuronal Human Tubulin by Vemu, Annapurna, Atherton, Joseph, Spector, Jeffrey O., Szyk, Agnieszka, Moores, Carolyn A., Roll-Mecak, Antonina

“…Microtubules are polymers that cycle stochastically between polymerization and depolymerization, i.e. they exhibit “dynamic instability.” This behavior is…”
