Summary

Tubulin association was monitored by spectrometry and sedimentation, providing the concentration in free protein, cold-depolymerizable microtubules, and cold-resistant associations. At 37 deg C, 1,2-propanediol and dimethyl sulfoxide induce a similar association level and cold stability of the assemblies. Glycerol yields a lower level of tubulin association. In addition, protein content of the various fractions obtained with microtubule-associated proteins and 30% solvent was examined by densitometry of electrophoresis gels.
