  • Microtubules are tubes in which helical symmetry is broken at a single ‘A-lattice’ seam. Katsuki et al.show that microtubules containing additional A-lattice seams exhibit decreased stability, and propose that such seams may act as trigger points for microtubule catastrophe.

  • In vitro, pure tubulin assembles into B-lattice microtubules, in which lateral αα and ββ contacts between tubulin heterodimers predominate. Mal3, a homolog of the plus end–tracking protein EB1, is now shown to promote microtubule assembly into an A-lattice arrangement, forcing reconsideration of in vivo microtubule structure.

  • Microtubules are vital and highly conserved components of the cytoskeleton. Here the authors carry out a structural analysis of fission yeast microtubules in the presence and absence of the microtubule end-binding protein Mal3 that demonstrates structural plasticity amongst microtubule polymers.
