Abstract

Posttranslational modifications of tubulin likely generate the functional diversity of microtubules. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Loktev and colleagues (2008) describe a novel protein BBIP10 with dual roles: it is required for ciliogenesis as well as acetylation and stabilization of microtubules.
