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.

Published in 2021 at "Biophysical journal"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2021.05.027

Abstract: Disaggregation and microtubule-severing nanomachines from the AAA+ (ATPases associated with various cellular activities) superfamily assemble into ring-shaped hexamers that enable protein remodeling by coupling large-scale conformational changes with application of mechanical forces within a central… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Microbiological research"

DOI: 10.1016/j.micres.2019.126325

Abstract: Edwardsiella bacteria cause economic losses to a variety of commercially important fish globally. Human infections are rare and result in a gastroenteritis-like illness. Because these bacteria are evolutionarily related to other Enterobacteriaceae and the host… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Genetics"

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.
