dc.subjectUsing live-cell microscopy and EB mutant rescue experiments in HeLa cells, this thesis defines erratic MT growth behavior, characterized by rapid back-and-forth displacement. We developped a novel analysis pipeline to quantify this behavior and reveal that SxIP +TIPs, not CAP-Gly +TIPs, are key for stable MT growth. EB1-EB3 heterodimers fully rescue erratic behavior, while a rapalog-inducible system proves ineffective.
