Abstract

Highlights ► γ-Tubulin localizes at actin-based membrane protrusions. ► The localization was supported by knock-down and overexpression of γ-tubulin. ► Expression of tagged γ-tubulin dramatically inhibited the formation of stress-fibers. ► This phenotype is similar to that obtained by overexpression of WCA domains.
