Cutting, Amplifying, and Aligning Microtubules with Severing Enzymes
Microtubule-severing enzymes – katanin, spastin, fidgetin – are related AAA-ATPases that cut microtubules into shorter filaments. These proteins, also called severases, are involved in a wide range of cellular processes including cell division, neuronal development, and tissue morphogenesis. Paradox...
