In this paper, vibration of the protein microtubule, one of the most important intracellular elements serving as one of the common components among nanotechnology, biotechnology and mechanics, is investigated using stress and strain gradient elasticity theory and orthotropic elastic shells model. Microtubules in the cell are influenced by internal and external stimulation and play a part in con...

The DNA structure checkpoint protein Rad26ATRIP is also required for an interphase microtubule damage response. This checkpoint delays spindle pole body separation and entry into mitosis following treatment of cells with microtubule poisons. This checkpoint requires cytoplasmic Rad26ATRIP, which is compromised by the rad26:4A allele that inhibits cytoplasmic accum...

The microtubule-associated protein, doublecortin-like kinase 1 (DCLK1), is highly expressed in a range of cancers and prominent therapeutic target for inhibitors. physiological roles DCLK1 activity how it regulated remain elusive. Here, we analyze the role mammalian regulating microtubule binding. We found that autophosphorylates residue within its C-terminal tail to restrict prevent aberrant h...

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by two pathological hallmark lesions: extracellular plaques composed of ?-amyloid (A?) peptide and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles made up highly phosphorylated tau protein. Over the past decades, most disease-modifying therapies against AD have been developed mainly on basis amyloid cascade hypothesis with...

Neuronal migration and axon growth guidance require precise control of microtubule dynamics microtubule-based cargo transport. TUBB3 encodes the neuronal-specific β-tubulin isotype III, TUBB3, a component neuronal microtubules expressed throughout life central peripheral neurons. Human pathogenic missense variants result in altered function cause errors either cranial and, to lesser extent, axo...

Abstract Spatial light modulators have become an essential tool for advanced microscopy, enabling breakthroughs in 3D, phase, and super-resolution imaging. However, continuous spatial-light modulation that is capable of capturing sub-millisecond microscopic motion without diffraction artifacts polarization dependence challenging. Here we present a photothermal spatial modulator (PT-SLM) fast ph...

Objective(s):EMAP-like Protein 5 (EML5) is a new echinoderm microtubule-associated protein that is expressed in the central nervous system. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression profile of EML5 in the anterior temporal neocortex of patients presenting with intractable epilepsy (IE). Materials and Methods:Western blot assays were performed to determine EML5 expression in 36 su...
