Microtubules are the largest type of filament, with a diameter of about 25 nanometers (nm), and they are composed of a protein called tubulin. Actin filaments are the smallest type, with a ...

In plants, both microtubule-associated proteins (MAPS) and viral movement proteins (MPs) interact with microtubules. Recently, a unique plant structural MAP has been cloned, which may have a ...

The researchers investigated how the skeletal structure (axoneme) formed from microtubules is organized. They discovered ...

This transformation is crucial for the structure and function of the Bb, which are vital for successful embryonic development. The researchers also uncovered the essential role of microtubules ...
