Our findings suggest the intriguing possibility that cells actively tune microtubule mechanical responses based on functional needs.

Our new preprint is live!🎉 Cytosolic factors govern vimentin network architecture and mechanics. Cytosolic components shape vimentin IF networks & mechanics - beyond minimal reconstitutions. On bioRxiv now! Congrats @dyuthisreekumar.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

🚨Great News!🚨 Our latest preprint is now live on bioRxiv! We show that MAP65-1 and PRC1 facilitate microtubule nucleation on pre-existing lattices, particularly at sites with structural defects associated with mechanical stress. Congrats @marianattom.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

🎉New Paper Drop🎉 We just uploaded our latest findings on bioRxiv! We report the identification of the limits of microtubule self-repair and how microtubule integrity is maintained under mechanical load. Congratulations @bucklingmt.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Happy to share that our paper on Tau- Microtubule interaction is now published in Nature Physics!🥳 We show that Tau isn’t just a microtubule stabiliser - it promotes removal of defects in the microtubule lattice. Congratulations @subhambiswas.bsky.social! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
