Cell Biol. 4:2002;323-327 APC, a tumour suppressor protein, is known to interact with the microtubule cytoskeleton. It has been localised to cortical protein clusters, absent in APC-deficient cancer cells, near the distal ends of microtubules, at the edges of migrating epithelial cells. The authors show that APC interacts with the kinesin superfamily KIF3A and KIF3B proteins, through an association with the kinesin-superfamily-associated protein 3 (KAP3), and that KAP3 is necessary for peripheral APC localisation. The APC-KIF3A/3B-KAP3 complex also contains β-catenin, raising the intriguing possibility that KAP3-KIF3A/KIF3B transport APC-β-catenin to the leading edge to regulate cell migration.

Cell Sci. 115:2002;3527-3539 Combining different imaging methods, microtubule dynamics were investigated in CHO and NRK cells both at cell centre and edge. Microtubule dynamics is very different at the cell centre, were growth is persistent, and at the cell periphery where it appeared more stochastic, with frequent shortening and rescues.

Mol. Biol. Cell. 13:2002;3614-3626 A detailed analysis of EB1 binding to microtubules (MTs) in the presence of Xenopus extracts reveals different modes of distribution over the MT lattice and divergent effects on MT polymerisation, depending on the extract used. Plus-end accumulation is explained by a higher affinity for a structural and/or chemical property of the tip, although EB1 also has affinity for the 'older' MT wall. Release from the MT lattice occurs with first-order kinetics.

Cell Biol. 157:2002;783-793 Tea1p is a cell-end marker involved in microtubule organisation in the yeast S. pombe. This study shows that it localises at microtubule polymerising ends and that its movement is independent of the Tea2p kinesin. The authors also show that localisation at plus end and to the cell cortex depends on different domains, and fulfil different functions: maintenance of linear growth and retention of cortical factors, respectively.

Genes Dev. 16:2002;1627-1639 This study defines a new microtubule capture site at the yeast bud neck and shows it is required to position the spindle relative to the cleavage apparatus. Capture requires the septins and the microtubule (MT)-associated protein Kar9. MT attachment at the bud neck is followed by shrinkage and a pulling action on the spindle, which requires the Par1- related, septin-dependent kinases Hsl1 and Gin4. These results indicate that septins and septin-dependent kinases may coordinate MT and actin functions in cell division.

Cell Biol. 158:2002;873-884 Depletion of EB1 by RNA-mediated inhibition (RNAi) in interphase cells causes a dramatic increase in nondynamic microtubules (MTs), although it does not alter the overall MT organisation. In mitotic cells, strong defects in spindle MT organisation and positioning are observed upon EB1 depletion. Similar results are obtained after EB1 perturbation in the embryo, where its inhibition leads to defects in spindle elongation and chromosomal segregation.

Cell. 109:2002;873-885 This study links the actin-based control of cell polarity to microtubule (MT) plus-end dynamics by documenting the interaction of activated Rac1/Cdc42, their effector IQGAP1 and the plus-end tracking protein CLIP-170. This interaction seems necessary to ensure efficient control of MT dynamics and growth polarity.

Cell. 13:2002;1871-1880 The re-orientation of the microtubule (MT)-organising centre and the re-organisation of the MT network during cell migration into a wound are compared between Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) and PtK (rat kangeroo) cell lines. This study shows that these cytoskeletal rearrangements are not universal but depend on cell type. Photoactivation experiments shows that coherent movement of MTs in the direction of migration is observed in CHO cells and not in Ptk cells. In CHO cells, centrosome movement requires dynamic MTs and cytoplasmic dynein, and can be prevented by increasing cell-cell adhesion.
