Figure 3

Depolymerization rates versus microtubule composition. Average rates of loss in microtubule length versus % GMPCPP incorporated (experiments, blue circles) and % uncompressed dimers (simulations, red squares). Horizontal dashed line corresponds to 0.240 µm s−1. Negatively sloped dashed line corresponds to y = (0.60 µm s−1)exp[− 0.060x] where x is % GMPCPP incorporated (uncompressed dimers).
