MTOC, microtubule organizing complex

MTs are stabilized at their minus ends by the centrosome (also called microtubule organizing center, MTOC). Centrosomes are protein complexes containing among other proteins two centrioles (ringlike structures) and a-tubulin. Centrosomes serve as nucleation points for microtubular polymerization and constrain the lattice structure of an MT to 13 protofila-... [Pg.414]
