title: Microtubule dynamics: if you need a shrink try stathmin/Op18.
abstract: Recent studies show that stathmin/Op18 may be an important physiological regulator of microtubule dynamics; the activity of stathmin/Op18 is controlled by the actions of several signalling pathways, allowing it to play a central role in coordinating microtubule behaviour.
