Transformation of taxol-stabilized microtubules into inverted tubulin tubules triggered by a tubulin conformation switch

Bundles of taxol-stabilized microtubules (MTs) – hollow tubules comprised of assembled αβ-tubulin heterodimers – spontaneously assemble above a critical concentration of tetravalent spermine and are stable over long times at room temperature. Here we report that at concentrations of spermine several...
