DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2018.11.048

Abstract: Microtubule severing is essential for reorganization of microtubules during neuronal migration and process elongation. Katanin is a microtubule-severing enzyme, of which the major catalytic subunits are katanin A1 (KATNA1) and katanin A-like 1 (KATNAL1). The… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2019.09.049

Abstract: Cytokinesis is fundamental for cell proliferation [1, 2]. In plants, a bipolar short-microtubule array forms the phragmoplast, which mediates vesicle transport to the midzone and guides the formation of cell walls that separate the mother… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.str.2019.07.002

Abstract: Katanin is a microtubule-severing enzyme that is crucial for many cellular processes. Katanin consists of two subunits, p60 and p80, that form a stable complex. The interaction between subunits is mediated by the p60 N-terminal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/genetics/iyac043

Abstract: Microtubule severing plays important roles in cell structure and cell division. The microtubule severing protein katanin, composed of the MEI-1/MEI-2 subunits in C. elegans, is required for oocyte meiotic spindle formation; however, it must be… read more here.
