RESUMO
ATP-dependent severing activity of microtubule severing proteins leads to the local destabilization of the microtubule structure and causes shortening or disassembly of the existing microtubules or formation of the numerous short microtubule fragments that serve as templates during new microtubule polymerization. Microtubule severing protein-dependent rearrangement of the microtubular cytoskeleton plays an important role in the numerous cellular processes including chromosome segregation during meiosis and mitosis, cells migration, dendrites and axon formation, cilia assembly and arrangement of the cortical microtubules in plant cells.
