Johanna Höög and colleagues acquired serial section images of a cell and combined these into a 3D reconstruction. The resolution of the reconstruction was such that microtubule polarity ...
Microtubules tend to grow out from the centrosome to the plasma membrane. In nondividing cells, microtubule networks radiate out from the centrosome to provide the basic organization of the ...
Key cells in the brain, neurons, form networks by exchanging signals, enabling the brain to learn and adapt at incredible ...
Their findings, published in Developmental Cell, shed light on how a protein called CDK5RAP2 activates the microtubule ...
