Effect of alpha-tubulin acetylation on the doublet microtubule structure

Shun Kai Yang, Shintaroh Kubo, Corbin Steven Black…·Khanh Huy Bui

This study examines how alpha-tubulin acetylation affects doublet microtubule structure in Tetrahymena cilia using cryo-EM, MD, and mass spectrometry, finding small-scale structural changes and a link to phosphorylation.
