The cytoplasmic microtubules of Antarctic fishes assemble from their tubulin subunits at physiological body temperatures in the range -2 to +2 degrees C. Our objective is to determine the structural features that enhance the assembly of Antarctic fish tubulins at low temperatures. Here we compare the structures of tubulin subunits from three Antarctic fishes (Notothenia gibberifrons, Notothenia...
