Reflecting significant advances in microtubule research during the past decade, a prominent group of contributors present reviews dealing with three central topics--the biochemistry and assembly of tubulin dimer; associated proteins and regulation of microtubule function; and microtubule organization and function in the cell.
Partial table of contents:
TUBULIN BIOCHEMISTRY AND ASSEMBLY.
Tubulin: Conservation and Structure (R. Burns & C.Surridge).
Regulation of Tubulin Synthesis (D. Cleveland & N.Theodorakis).
Pharmacological Probes of Microtubule Function (L. Wilson & M.Jordan).
PROTEINS ASSOCIATED WITH MICROTUBULES.
The MAP1 Family (R. Muller, et al.).
MAP2 (A. Matus).
Tektins (J. Norrander & R. Linck).
Microtubule Stabilization (R. Margolis & D. Job).
The Kinensin Superfamily (A. Pereira & L. Goldstein).
MICROTUBULE ORGANIZATION AND FUNCTION IN CELLS.
