Abstract: Non‐erythroid spectrin or fodrin is present as part of the γ‐tubulin ring complex (γ‐TuRC) in brain tissue and brain derived cells. Here, we show that fodrin, which is otherwise known for providing structural support to… read more here.

Abstract: Microtubules are protein cylinders with functions in cell motility, signal sensing, cell organization, intracellular transport, and chromosome segregation. One of the key properties of microtubules is their dynamic architecture, allowing them to grow and shrink… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Gamma-tubulin (γ-tubulin) is known to be a key component of the complexes responsible for nucleation and the provision of spatial and temporal control over the functioning of the microtubule cytoskeleton. However, the effect of… read more here.
