Microtubule nucleation: beyond the template.
Roostalu J, Surrey T. Roostalu J, et al. Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol. 2017 Nov;18(11):702-710. doi: 10.1038/nrm.2017.75. Epub 2017 Aug 23. Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol. 2017. PMID: 28831203 Review.
Consequently, cells need to exert tight control over when, where and how many microtubules are being made. Whereas the regulation of microtubule dynamics is well studied, the molecular mechanisms of microtubule nucleation are still poorly understood. N …

Microtubule nucleation: The waltz between gamma-tubulin ring complex and associated proteins.
Liu P, Würtz M, Zupa E, Pfeffer S, Schiebel E. Liu P, et al. Curr Opin Cell Biol. 2021 Feb;68:124-131. doi: 10.1016/j.ceb.2020.10.004. Epub 2020 Nov 12. Curr Opin Cell Biol. 2021. PMID: 33190097 Review.
In high eukaryotes, microtubule nucleation, the de novo assembly of a microtubule from its minus end, is initiated by the gamma-tubulin ring complex (gamma-TuRC). ...In vitro assays further deciphered the spatial and temporal cooperation between gamma-TuRC an …

Microtubule nucleation.
Job D, Valiron O, Oakley B. Job D, et al. Curr Opin Cell Biol. 2003 Feb;15(1):111-7. doi: 10.1016/s0955-0674(02)00003-0. Curr Opin Cell Biol. 2003. PMID: 12517712 Review.
Microtubule nucleation is the process in which several tubulin molecules interact to form a microtubule seed. Microtubule nucleation occurs spontaneously in purified tubulin solutions, and molecular intermediates between tubulin dimers and mi

CAMSAPs and nucleation-promoting factors control microtubule release from gamma-TuRC.
Rai D, Song Y, Hua S, Stecker K, Monster JL, Yin V, Stucchi R, Xu Y, Zhang Y, Chen F, Katrukha EA, Altelaar M, Heck AJR, Wieczorek M, Jiang K, Akhmanova A. Rai D, et al. Nat Cell Biol. 2024 Mar;26(3):404-420. doi: 10.1038/s41556-024-01366-2. Epub 2024 Feb 29. Nat Cell Biol. 2024. PMID: 38424271 Free PMC article.
gamma-Tubulin ring complex (gamma-TuRC) is the major microtubule-nucleating factor. After nucleation, microtubules can be released from gamma-TuRC and stabilized by other proteins, such as CAMSAPs, but the biochemical cross-talk between minus-end regul …

Centrosomal and acentrosomal microtubule nucleation during neuronal development.
Vinopal S, Bradke F. Vinopal S, et al. Curr Opin Neurobiol. 2025 Jun;92:103016. doi: 10.1016/j.conb.2025.103016. Epub 2025 Mar 26. Curr Opin Neurobiol. 2025. PMID: 40147111 Free article. Review.
We review recent progress in understanding the molecular concepts of microtubule nucleation, how these concepts underlie neurodevelopmental processes, and pinpoint the open questions. Since microtubules play a pivotal role in axon regeneration within the adul …
