In Vitro Reconstitution Assays of Microtubule Amplification and Lattice Repair by the Microtubule-Severing Enzymes Katan

Microtubules are non-covalent dynamic polymers essential for the life of all eukaryotic cells. Their dynamic behavior is regulated by a large array of cellular effectors. In vitro microtubule assays have been instrumental in dissecting the mechanism of mi

For over 35 years, biological scientists have come to rely on the research protocols and methodologies in the critically acclaimed Methods in Molecular Biology series. The series was the first to introduce the step-by-step protocols approach that has become the standard in all biomedical protocol publishing. Each protocol is provided in readily-reproducible step-bystep fashion, opening with an introductory overview, a list of the materials and reagents needed to complete the experiment, and followed by a detailed procedure that is supported with a helpful notes section offering tips and tricks of the trade as well as troubleshooting advice. These hallmark features were introduced by series editor Dr. John Walker and constitute the key ingredient in each and every volume of the Methods in Molecular Biology series. Tested and trusted, comprehensive and reliable, all protocols from the series are indexed in PubMed.
