Microtubule-associated proteins of neurons
Microtubule-associated proteins (MAP) have been identified in cultures of rat sympathetic neurons. In all of the experiments performed here, the cultures consisted of greater than 97% neurons. 26 proteins were identified in these neuronal cultures that (a) remained associated with cytoskeletons prepared with a Triton X-100-containing microtubule-stabilizing buffer, (b) were released from such c...
متن کاملMicrotubules and microtubule-associated proteins.
Microtubule research is becoming increasingly diverse, reflecting the many isoforms and modifications of tubulin and the many proteins with which microtubules interact. Recent advances are particularly visible in four areas: microtubule motor proteins (their structures, stepping modes, and forces); microtubule nucleation (the roles of centrosomes and gamma-tubulin); tubulin folding (mediated by...
متن کاملRASSF1A interacts with microtubule-associated proteins and modulates microtubule dynamics.
The candidate tumor suppressor gene RASSF1A is inactivated in many types of adult and childhood cancers. However, the mechanisms by which RASSF1A exerts its tumor suppressive functions have yet to be elucidated. To this end, we performed a yeast two-hybrid screen to identify novel RASSF1A-interacting proteins in a human brain cDNA library. Seventy percent of interacting clones had homology to m...
متن کاملCommon and distinct tubulin binding sites for microtubule-associated proteins.
A specific binding assay was developed that monitors the interaction of 125I-labeled microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) with tubulin or its fragments bound to nitrocellulose membrane. To identify the tubulin-binding domains for MAPs we have examined the binding of rat brain 125I-labeled MAP2 or 125I-labeled tau factors to 60 peptides derived from porcine alpha- and beta-tubulin. MAP2 and ta...
متن کاملMultifunctional Microtubule-Associated Proteins in Plants
Microtubules (MTs) are involved in key processes in plant cells, including cell division, growth and development. MT-interacting proteins modulate MT dynamics and organization, mediating functional and structural interaction of MTs with other cell structures. In addition to conventional microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) in plants, there are many other MT-binding proteins whose primary func...
