Microtubules are polarized cytoskeletal filaments that serve as tracks for intracellular
transport and form a scaffold that positions organelles and other cellular components and …

The cytoskeleton and its components—actin, microtubules and intermediate filaments—
have been studied for decades, and multiple roles of the individual cytoskeletal …

Over the past several decades, numerous studies have greatly expanded our knowledge
about how microtubule organization and dynamics are controlled in cultured cells in vitro …

The organization of microtubule networks is crucial for controlling chromosome segregation
during cell division, for positioning and transport of different organelles, and for cell polarity …

Microtubules control cell architecture by serving as a scaffold for intracellular transport,
signaling, and organelle positioning. Microtubules are intrinsically polarized, and their …

Microtubules are core components of the cytoskeleton and serve as tracks for motor protein–
based intracellular transport. Microtubule networks are highly diverse across different cell …

Microtubules are cytoskeletal filaments essential for numerous aspects of cell physiology.
They are polarized polymeric tubes with a fast growing plus end and a slow growing minus …

Microtubules are dynamic polymers consisting of αβ-tubulin heterodimers. The initial
polymerization process, called microtubule nucleation, occurs spontaneously via αβ-tubulin …

Non-centrosomal microtubule-organizing centres (ncMTOCs) have a variety of roles that are
presumed to serve the diverse functions of the range of cell types in which they are found …

The intestinal epithelium is a highly organized tissue. The establishment of epithelial cell
polarity, with distinct apical and basolateral plasma membrane domains, is pivotal for both …
