Postdoc to study microtubule regulation (Conduit Lab)

News2 February 2023
The Conduit lab studies how microtubule nucleation is regulated in a cell-specific manner to allow different cells to form their specialised microtubule arrays. Regulation of γ-TuRC activation Microtubules are essential cell components linked to many human pathologies. They are nucleated by muti-protein gamma-tubulin ring complexes (γ-TuRCs), which are themselves potential targets for cancer therapy. Microtubule nucleation needs to…
