Insights into EB1 structure and the role of its C-terminal domain for discriminating microtubule tips from the lattice

EBs, key microtubule (MT) tip–tracking proteins, are elongated molecules with two interacting calponin homology (CH) domains, an arrangement reminiscent of MT- and actin-binding CH proteins. In addition, electrostatic interactions between the C-terminus of EBs and MTs drive the specificity of EBs fo...
