We applied cross-linking/mass spectrometry to characterize in vivo Augmin from Drosophila in absence of any other structural information. The identified cross-links revealed topology of the Augmin complex and allowed us to predict potential interfaces between Augmin and γ-TuRC.

In mitosis, the augmin complex binds to spindle microtubules to recruit the γ-tubulin ring complex (γ-TuRC), the principal microtubule nucleator, for the formation of branched microtubules. Our understanding of augmin-mediated microtubule branching is strongly hampered by the lack of structural info...

Microtubule (MT) branch nucleation is fundamental for building parallel MT networks in eukaryotic cells. In plants and metazoans, MT branch nucleation requires Augmin and NEDD1 proteins which bind along MTs and then recruit and activate the gamma-tubulin ring complex (g-TuRC). Augmin is a fork-shap...

Centriole biogenesis and maintenance are crucial for cells to generate cilia and assemble centrosomes that function as microtubule organizing centers (MTOCs). Centriole biogenesis and MTOC function both require the microtubule nucleator -tubulin ring complex (TuRC). It is widely accepted that TuRC n...

Branching microtubule nucleation is a key mechanism for mitotic and meiotic spindle assembly and requires the hetero-octameric augmin complex. Augmin recruits the major microtubule nucleator, the γ-tubulin ring complex, to pre-existing microtubules to direct the formation of new microtubules in a de...
