Ternary complex of Kif2A-bound tandem tubulin heterodimers represents a kinesin-13-mediated microtubule depolymerization reaction intermediate

The kinesin-13 family of microtubule (MT) depolymerases are major regulators of MT dynamics. Here the authors provide insights into the MT depolymerization mechanism by solving the crystal structure of a kinesin-13 monomer (Kif2A) in complex with two bent αβ-tubulin heterodimers.
