Conformational changes in tubulin in GMPCPP and GDP-taxol microtubules observed by cryoelectron microscopy
Microtubules are dynamic polymers that stochastically switch between growing and shrinking phases. Microtubule dynamics are regulated by guanosine triphosphate (GTP) hydrolysis by β-tubulin, but the mechanism of this regulation remains elusive because high-resolution microtubule structures have only...
