CAMSAP2 organizes a γ-tubulin-independent microtubule nucleation centre

T. Imasaki, S. Kikkawa, S. Niwa, Y. Saijo-Hamano, H. Shigematsu, K. Aoyama, K. Mitsuoka, M. Aoki, A. Sakamot, Y. Tomabechi, N. Sakai, M. Shirouz, S. Taguchi, Y. Yamagish, T. Setsu, , R. Nitta

The paper shows CAMSAP2 nucleates microtubules from soluble β-tubulin without γ-tubulin, reducing the nucleation barrier and forming aster-like structures.
