This study investigates how MATCAP1 binds to expanded microtubule conformations to generate detyrosinated and ΔC2 α-tubulin modifications.

The paper investigates the accessibility of the α-tubulin C-terminal tail (Y-CTT) and finds it is regulated by microtubule lattice conformation through nucleotide state and MAP interactions.

This study shows that temperature-sensitive condensation of SUF4 protein regulates FLC transcription and flowering time in Arabidopsis.

This study shows KIF1C's C-terminal IDR drives LLPS, enabling RNA transport and revealing a new mode of motor-cargo interaction.

This study identifies a new regulatory mechanism of KIF1A motility through K-loop interactions with polyglutamylated microtubule C-terminal tails, revealing how pausing behavior contributes to superprocessive transport.
