摘要
How the physical nature of the cytoplasm shapes cellular processes has been increasingly studied in recent years. Work in this issue demonstrates that cytoplasmic viscosity affects the dynamic instability of microtubules. Surprisingly, both polymerization and depolymerization slow with increasing viscosity. This raises interesting questions for future work.
