Abstract
The dynamics of microtubule-based (MT) cytoskeletons are controlled by a variety of accessory proteins: microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs), which usually stabilize MTs, and microtubule-destabilizers. Two related MAPs, XMAP215 and Stu2p, are known to stabilize MTs. However, recent studies report that these proteins have a MT-destabilizing function as well. Here we discuss the implications of these reports.Mesh：
