Microtubules are dynamic, tubular polymers composed of αβ-tubulin dimers that form an essential framework within eukaryotic cells. They orchestrate a wide range of cellular functions including ...

Microtubules, a key component of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells, serve as scaffolds and play vital roles in cellular processes such as cell division, cell migration, intracellular transport, and ...

Prefoldin 5 stabilises neuronal microtubules and suppresses Tau-mediated neurotoxicity, offering a potential therapeutic target for tauopathies.

Microtubule-depolymerising agents disrupt microtubule function by binding to specific sites on β-tubulin subunits; consequently they are ideal for use in cell synchronization studies and also in the ...

A joint research team from the LKS Faculty of Medicine (HKUMed) and the Faculty of Science at the University of Hong Kong has uncovered an unexpected interaction between chemotherapeutic agents and a ...

Tau protein is a microtubule-associated protein, widely present in the central nervous system. It plays a key role in maintaining and regulating the structure and function of neurons. In ...

High-resolution AFM image of the inner and outer surfaces of a microtubule. Microtubules (MTs), a key component of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells, serve as scaffolds and play vital roles in ...
