Structure and functions of microtubule, illustration. Microtubules, part of the cytoskeleton, are formed from dimers of the protein tubulin. Three monomers of tubulin are present; alpha, beta and gamma. The functions of microtubules include the formation of centrioles, attachment to centromere of chromosomes during cell division, providing motility and transport of substances from one part of cell to another. | |
