Congratulations to Jeff Woodruff and colleagues on their paper in Cell!
In this work, led by Jeff Woodruff, we used defined components to reconstitute a minimal centrosome in vitro that can nucleate microtubule asters. Our results suggest that the centrosome acts a selective phase that nucleates microtubules by concentrating microtubule polymerases and soluble tubulin.
