Mini-symposium on Microtubules

Global-COE-sponsored Mini-Symposium will be held in English as follows. Your participation is appreciated.

Symposium Title :

Microtubules: nucleation, dynamics, and regulation

Microtubule is a bio-polymer composed of highly conserved tubulin subunits, and organizes into various higher-order structures and functions in mitosis and interphase. In this mini-symposium, recent studies on nucleation, dynamics, and regulation of plant microtubules will be introduced.

Date :
