    Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics MPI CBG, 01307 Dresden, Germany
    J Cell Biol 170:1047-55. 2005

    Gary J Brouhard
    Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics, Dresden, Germany

    Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci 360:591-4. 2005
    ..We show that tau is a much more potent inhibitor of XKCM1 than XMAP215. Because tau completely suppresses XKCM1 activity, even at low concentrations, the combination of tau and XKCM1 is unable to generate mitotic microtubule dynamics...
