Subnanometre-resolution structure of the doublet microtubule reveals new classes of microtubule-associated proteins

Cilia are hair-like appendages involved in cell motility and sensory reception. Here, the authors report a high resolution cryo-EM structure of the microtubule doublet from motile cilia and identify microtubule inner proteins (MIPs) bound to the inner surface of the doublet that appear to stabilize...

Sumario:Cilia are hair-like appendages involved in cell motility and sensory reception. Here, the authors report a high resolution cryo-EM structure of the microtubule doublet from motile cilia and identify microtubule inner proteins (MIPs) bound to the inner surface of the doublet that appear to stabilize its structure.
