Soluble αβ-tubulins reversibly sequester TTC5 to regulate tubulin mRNA decay

A. Batiuk, M. Höpfler, A. C. Almeida, D. T. En-Jie, O. Vadas, E. Vartholomaiou, R. S. Hegde, Z. Lin, I. Gasic

The paper shows soluble β-tubulins sequester TTC5 to regulate tubulin mRNA decay, with loss of sequestration leading to reduced mRNA levels and chromosome segregation defects.
