BtubA-BtubB Heterodimer Is an Essential Intermediate in Protofilament Assembly
BACKGROUND: BtubA and BtubB are two tubulin-like genes found in the bacterium Prosthecobacter. Our work and a previous crystal structure suggest that BtubB corresponds to α−tubulin and BtubA to β−tubulin. A 1∶1 mixture of the two proteins assembles into tubulin-like protofilaments, which further agg...
