  "Gamma-TuRC barely does anything," she said. "It nucleates a handful of microtubules, but it should make thousands." That search may now be over.
Paper Context: Remarkably, the low concentration of XMAP215 (5-30 nM) together with γ -TuRC resulted in 6-10-fold increase in the number of MTs generated when compared to the sum of MTs generated by XMAP215 and γ -TuRC individually ( Supplementary Fig. With higher XMAP215 concentrations, even more prominent increase in MT generation was observed when the γ -TuRC was present (Fig. However, owing to the emergence of long, bundled MTs, individual MTs could not be counted and the total MT fluorescence intensity across all reactions was measured instead (Fig.
