Structural Plasticity in Actin and Tubulin Polymer Dynamics
Open accessAbstract
Discussing Polymerization Dynamics: Actin and tubulin represent the major components of microfilaments and microtubules, which are responsible for the cytoskeletal framework of cells. Together with their recently discovered bacterial counterparts, the mechanisms of assembly and disassembly of polymers of these proteins are fundamental to our understanding of cytoplasmic organization and motility. Kueh and Mitchison (p. 960 ) review mechanisms of cytoskeleton polymerization dynamics and discuss the relative importance of structural plasticity in regulating polymerization.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
