A thermodynamic model of microtubule assembly and disassembly.

A thermodynamic model of microtubule assembly and disassembly.

Microtubules are self-assembling polymers whose dynamics are essential for the normal function of cellular processes including chromosome separation and cytokinesis. Therefore understanding what factors effect microtubule growth is fundamental to our understanding of the control of microtubule based...
