Non-centrosomal nucleation mediated by augmin organizes microtubules in post-mitotic neurons and controls axonal microtubule polarity
In mature neurons the centrosome no longer functions as the main microtubule organizer and it is unclear how ordered microtubule arrays are assembled. Here, the authors show that in post-mitotic neurons this process depends on non-centrosomal nucleation mediated by the protein complex augmin and the...

Sumario: | In mature neurons the centrosome no longer functions as the main microtubule organizer and it is unclear how ordered microtubule arrays are assembled. Here, the authors show that in post-mitotic neurons this process depends on non-centrosomal nucleation mediated by the protein complex augmin and the nucleator gamma-TuRC. |
