Interactive domains in the molecular chaperone human alphaB crystallin modulate microtubule assembly and disassembly.

PloS one - 6 Jun 2007

Ghosh Joy G, Houck Scott A, Clark John I

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Small heat shock proteins regulate microtubule assembly during cell proliferation and in response to stress through interactions that are poorly understood. METHODOLOGY: Novel functions for five interactive sequences in the small heat shock protein and molecular chaperone, human alphaB crystallin, were investigated in the assembly/disassembly of microtubules and aggregation of tubulin using synthetic...
