Microtubulin is an important protein filament which is a major component of the cytoskeleton[1]. It is make up from globular tubulin dimers, which come together to form hollow cylinders which are 24nm in diameter[2]. Microtubulin has numerous functions, for example they have a vital role in cell division and protein movement around the cell.
