This “tubulin code” generates microtubule diversity that modulates key cellular functions. However, whether and how these tubulin PTMs regulate cancer cell properties remains largely unknown. Here, we proposed to understand: (1) the regulation of tubulin PTMs in cancer; (2) the functional implications of the “cancer tubulin code”.engtubulin codeacetylationdoctoral thesis101762275
