Microtubule dynamic processes and transport properties of Aurora A and Aurora B enzymes.

Dynamic processes involving microtubules (MT) and the values of kinetic rate constants and characteristic timescales associated with the MT growth, shortening, catastrophe and rescue; Δl = 24 nm is the amount by which MT length increases or decreases when MT grows or shortens, respectively. Also shown are the diffusion constants and diffusion timescales for Aurora B and Aurora A enzymes.
