Strukturelle und funktionale Charakterisierung des regulativen Netzwerks der Plus-Enden von Mikrotubuli mittels Hybridmethoden
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
p150 is a member of +TIPs, accumulating at microtubule plus ends. It plays a key role in initiating retrograde transport by recruiting and dynein. p150 contains a microtubule-binding CAP-Gly domain that accelerates tubulin polymerization. While this copolymerization is well studied using light microscopic techniques, structural consequences of the interaction are elusive. In this proposed research, we published a research article presenting a direct visualization of the microtubule-CAP-Gly by cryo-EM and showed the molecular mechanism of the control of microtubule dynamics. The neutralization of acidic tubulin surface by the basic extension of CAP-Gly resulted in the activation of the lateral association. In the condition where the lateral association is impeded, the extended CAP-Gly induces the longitudinal tubulin association. These two directional modes of self-associations induced by CAP-Gly may provide a foundation for the microtubule dynamic behavior.
