The paper demonstrates that motors can shepherd diffusive proteins on microtubules through biased diffusion, revealing a mechanism for spatial patterning without direct binding.

This study identifies a constitutively active mDia1 mutant that enables visualization of actin assembly in filopodia through TIRF microscopy.

The paper investigates the accessibility of the α-tubulin C-terminal tail (Y-CTT) and finds it is regulated by microtubule lattice conformation through nucleotide state and MAP interactions.
