In eukaryotic cells, microtubules, actin, and intermediate filaments interact to form the
cytoskeletal network involved in determination of cell architecture, intracellular transport …

Microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) are a diverse family of cytoskeletal proteins that
copurify with tubulin in vitro. Recently a number of novel approaches have been used to …

Tau protein is a family of microtubule binding proteins, heterogeneous in molecular weight,
that are induced during neurite outgrowth and are found prominently in neurofibrillary …

The microtubule-associated protein MAP2 is a prominent large-sized component of purified
brain microtubules that, like the 36-to 38-kilodalton tau proteins, bears antigenic …

cDNA clones coding for tenascin, an extracellular matrix glycoprotein with a restricted tissue
distribution, were isolated from a chicken fibroblast cDNA expression library using a specific …

We report the complete sequence of the microtubule-associated protein MAP1B, deduced
from a series of overlapping genomic and cDNA clones. The encoded protein has a …

Here we report that the microtubule-associated proteins MAP2 and tau share two separable
functional domains. One is the microtubule-binding site which serves to nucleate …

Expression of the differentiated neuronal phenotype is typically manifest in several
properties: distinct morphologies and organizations of the underlying cytoskeleton; …

ABSTRACT A polyclonal antiserum raised against a HeLa cell microtubule-associated
protein of Mr210000 (210 kD MAP or MAP4), an abundant non-neuronal MAP, was used to …

The differentiation and migration of superficial dorsal horn neurons and subsequent
ingrowth of cutaneous afferents are crucial events in the formation of somatosensory circuitry …
