The phragmoplast,a structure crucial for the completion of cytokinesis in plant cells,is composed of antiparallel microtubules(MTs)and actin filaments(AFs).However,how the parallel structure of phragmoplast MTs and AF...

The detyrosination/retyrosination cycle is the most common post-translational modification of α-tubulin.Removal of the conserved C-terminal tyrosine of α-tubulin by a still elusive tubulin tyrosine carboxypeptidase,...
Cytokinesis, the partitioning of the cytoplasm following nuclear division, requires extensive coordination between membrane trafficking and cytoskeletal dynamics. In plants, the onset of cytokinesis is characterized b...

The phragmoplast is a special apparatus that functions in establishing a cell plate in dividing plant cells. It is known that microfilaments (MFs) are involved in constituting phragmoplast structure, but the dynamic d...
