Tubulin acetylation protects long-lived microtubules against mechanical aging

Long-lived microtubules endow the eukaryotic cell with long-range transport abilities. While long-lived microtubules are acetylated on lysine 40 of α-tubulin (αK40), acetylation takes place after stabilization(1) and does not protect against depolymerization(2). Instead, αK40 acetylation has been pr...
