Abstract
In this issue, Ayukawa, Iwata, Imai, and colleagues (2021. J. Cell Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202007033) use rapid temporal and high-spatial-resolution electron microscopy imaging to examine the earliest stages of new microtubule nucleation. They discover that straightening of curved tubulin oligomers increases the efficiency of microtubule nucleation.
