Microtubule orientation controls polarized trafficking in neurons. In this work, γ-tubulin is identified as a key regulator of both axonal and dendritic microtubule polarity. In addition, the idea that γ-tubulin works in dendrites by residing at Golgi outposts is tested.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
