Tubulin posttranslational modifications have been predicted to control cytoskeletal functions
by coordinating the molecular interactions between microtubules and their associating …

Bioimage analysis (BIA) has historically helped study how and why cells move; biological
experiments evolved in intimate feedback with the most classical image processing …

Abiotic stress, such as salinity, drought, and cold, causes detrimental yield losses for all
major plant crop species. Understanding mechanisms that improve plants' ability to produce …

Tau is an intrinsically disordered protein, which diffuses on microtubules. In
neurodegenerative diseases, collectively termed tauopathies, malfunction of tau and its …

The heart is the most important muscular organ of the cardiovascular system, which pumps
blood and circulates, supplying oxygen and nutrients to peripheral tissues. Zebrafish have …

Recent developments in image processing have greatly advanced our understanding of
biomolecular processes in vitro and in vivo. In particular, using Gaussian models to fit the …

The combinatorial nature of many important mathematical problems, including
nondeterministic-polynomial-time (NP)-complete problems, places a severe limitation on the …

Microtubules are filamentous structures necessary for cell division, motility and morphology,
with dynamics critically regulated by microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs). Here we …

Precise segregation of chromosomes during mitosis requires assembly of a bipolar mitotic
spindle followed by correct attachment of microtubules to the kinetochores. This highly …

Kinesin-1 plays a major role in anterograde transport of intracellular cargo along
microtubules. Currently, there is an ongoing debate of whether α-tubulin K40 acetylation …
