Dynamic instability of microtubule growth.

T Mitchison, M Kirschner.   

Abstract

We report here that microtubules in vitro coexist in growing and shrinking populations which interconvert rather infrequently. This dynamic instability is a general property of microtubules and may be fundamental in explaining cellular microtubule organization.
