interact with microtubules. Recently, a unique plant structural MAP has been cloned, which may have a specialized function in cell division. Other recent work has identified a viral MP sequence ...

Intrigued by the shape similarities between mammalian lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) and plant cells, Mäkinen and her colleagues ... expression of genes linked to actin, spectrin, and microtubules ...

Plant cells, with their rigid cell walls ... that extends from the two spindle poles (centrosomes in animal cells).

Microtubules tend to grow out from the centrosome to the plasma membrane. In nondividing cells, microtubule networks radiate out from the centrosome to provide the basic organization of the ...
