Focus on Actin - G-F Actin ratio measured in cells
In previous posts,  I invited you to look at versatile methods to
- Visualize actin: Focus on Actin staining and visualization
- Measure actin binding: Focus on Actin – Detection of actin binding and
O-Glucuronide synthesis made easy
Tubulin and microtubule vizualization in cells
Recently, a we published a series of posts focusing on research tools aiming at studying actin through biochemical assays and in fixed and living cells
6 popular Microtubule agents used in in vitro tubulin assays
Microtubules are key components of the cytoskeletal structure of eukaryotic cells. Composed of alpha- and beta- tubulin sub-units, microtubules are dynamic entities
Neuromuscular diseases: A new application for Statins?
Statins are HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, well-known  medications for treating Hypercholesterolemia. Simvastatin is a member of this "Statin family" and controls
2 assays to assess GEF and GAP activity
In my previous post Small GTPases: Measuring small G protein activation I looked at state-of the-art methods for measuring the activation of small G proteins, such as RhoA, Rac1, Cdc42, and the proto-oncogen
Versatile measurement of protein binding to microtubules
You suspect your protein binds to microtubules? That it might stabilize or destabilize these filamentous structures? Then this post is here to help you to find a meaningful assay to validate your assumption.
How sample preparation can affect your biomarker studies (II)
In a previous post, we looked at the importance of sample preparation methods depending on the biomarker being studied (e.g. MMPs, cytokines). Today, let's focus on cell / tissue lysates.
Tip #1
Tubulin polymerisation measurement - made easy!
Recently, I issued a post about a method which allows measuring microtuble binding capabilities of proteins of interest. Today, I invite you to look at methods for
