    Abstract: The research is aimed to explore the effect of different functional domains of SpastinM87V on microtubule cutting of Hela cells. First, the Spastin gene was extracted and its mutants were constructed and identified. Then, Spastin and its mutants were transfected into Hela cells and their cutting effects on microtubules were observed. The results sh... Show More

    Abstract: Katanin is a heterodimeric hydrolase belonging to the AAA protein family and its function is cutting microtubules. It plays an important role in cell division, neural development, cell migration, and the formation of motor organelles. Katanin has two subunits including katanin p80 and p60. This research is aimed to study the effect of different loc... Show More
