| Tue 19 May 2026 13:00 - 14:00 |  Seminar: The ‘scrap-or-build’ switch and the traffic sign: How tiny structural shifts in microtubules tune dynamics and molecular affinity
Centre for Molecular Cell Biology Dr Tomohiro Shima Assistant Professor, University of Tokyo, Japan Summary Microtubules are among the principal cytoskeletal components that maintain the shape and architecture of eukaryotic cells. Their dynamic growth and shrinkage are exquisitely regulated across space and time, driving essential cellular processes such as cell division, migration, and morphological changes during differentiation. Furthermore, microtubules serve as tracks for motor proteins, enabling the targeted... |
