Two-color in vitro assay to visualize and quantify microtubule shaft dynamics

Summary: Microtubules are dynamic polymers where tubulin exchanges not only at the ends but also all along the microtubule shaft. In vitro reconstitutions are a vital approach to study microtubule tip dynamics, while direct observation of shaft dynamics is challenging. Here, we describe a dual-color...
