...Bettina Lechner; Madeleine C. Rashbrooke; David A. Collings; Ryan C. Eng; Eiko Kawamura; Angela T. Whittington; Geoffrey O. Wasteneys Summary Microtubule-associated proteins of the highly conserved XMAP215/Dis1 family promote both microtubule growth and shrinkage, and move with the dynamic...

... chain 3 (LC3) of microtubule-associated proteins 1A and 1B. Since human fibrosarcoma (HT1080) cells produce little fibronectin and LC3, we used these cells to investigate how LC3-mediated Fn1 mRNA translation might alter tumor growth. Transfection of HT1080 cells with LC3 enhanced fibronectin mRNA...

...Eiko Kawamura; Geoffrey O. Wasteneys MOR1, the Arabidopsis thaliana homologue of the Xenopus microtubule-associated protein MAP215, is required for spatial organization of the acentrosomal microtubule arrays of plant cells. To determine how loss of MOR1 function affects microtubule dynamics, we...

...Andrey V. Korolev; Henrik Buschmann; John H. Doonan; Clive W. Lloyd AtMAP70-5 is the most divergent of a recently described multigene family of plant-specific microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs). It is significantly smaller than other members and has several isoform-specific sequence features...

In this study, we have investigated the synchronous transdifferentiation of Zinnia mesophyll cells...

...Hsin-Yu Chang; Andrei P. Smertenko; Hisako Igarashi; David P. Dixon; Patrick J. Hussey Plant microtubules are intrinsically more dynamic than those from animals. We know little about the dynamics of the interaction of plant microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) with microtubules. Here, we have...
