Human TUBB3 mutations perturb microtubule dynamics, kinesin interactions, and axon guidance

Max A. Tischfield, +51 more
- 08 Jan 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that normal TUBB3 is required for axon guidance and maintenance in mammals and it is shown that the disease-associated mutations can impair tubulin heterodimer formation in vitro, although folded mutant heterodimers can still polymerize into microtubules.
Journal ArticleDOI
