News Finding: Nice new paper in @username from Sabine Petry's lab: synergy in #microtubule nucleation in XMAP215 and g-TURC 
Paper Finding: To address this, we depleted the γ -TuRC from Xenopus extracts and induced MT nucleation by RanQ69L, whereas XMAP215 and proteins that are required for branching MT nucleation were not depleted ( Supplementary Fig.

Paper Context: Our results show that XMAP215 is essential for MT generation, similar to the universal nucleator γ -TuRC, yet is γ -TuRC required for nucleation by XMAP215? To address this, we depleted the γ -TuRC from Xenopus extracts and induced MT nucleation by RanQ69L, whereas XMAP215 and proteins that are required for branching MT nucleation were not depleted ( Supplementary Fig. Almost no MTs formed with endogenous levels of XMAP215 level in the absence of γ -TuRC (Fig.
