Tubulin

...and epsilon tubulin have been found to localize at centrioles and may play a role in forming the mitotic spindle during mitosis. Pharmacology Tubulins are targets for anticancer drugs like taxol . The anti- gout agent colchicine binds to tubulin and inhibits microtubule formation, arresting neutrop...

Flagellum

The flagellum is encased within the cell's plasma membrane , so that the interior of the flagellum is accessible to the cell's cytoplasm . This is necessary because the flagellum's flexing is driven by the protein dynein br...

Centriole

...as certain algae and fungi, there exists a pair of centrioles arranged perpendicularly to each other; these are known as diplosomes, and the region they are located in (close to the nucleus) is known as the centrosome . Centrioles are important in the cell division process, organizing the spindle upon whi...
