Characterization of the thermostable nature of the alpha and beta tubulin proteins in Cyanidium caldarium and Cyanidioschyzon merolae
Microtubules are critically important cytoskeletal elements. Together with microtubule associated proteins (MAPs), they form the latticework on which eukaryotic life exists. Simply put, microtubules are polymers of tubulin heterodimers, which are composed of the globular proteins alpha and beta tubu...
