| umls-concept:C0026045 | skos:definition | MSH: High molecular weight proteins found in the MICROTUBULES of the cytoskeletal system. Under certain conditions they are required for TUBULIN assembly into the microtubules and stabilize the assembled microtubules.,CSP: fall into 2 general categories: large motor proteins (dynein, kinesin), and smaller tubulin-crosslinking proteins (tau proteins).,NCI: Proteins associated with the microtubule assembly infrastructure. These proteins include specialized motor proteins (dynein and kinesin) and smaller tubulin-crosslinking proteins (tau proteins). The proteins are required for both microtubule assembly and stabilization. | lld:umls |
