Microtubules are a component of the cytoskeleton, found throughout the cytoplasm.These highly dynamic tubular tubulin polymers have an average length of 25 m and a maximum growth length of 50 micrometers. A microtubule has an inner diameter of 12 nm and an outer diameter of about 24 nm. Alpha and beta tubulin combine to form a dimer, which is then polymerized to form microtubules, which are found in eukaryotic cells. One of many members of a small family of globular proteins is tubulin. The alpha-, beta-, gamma-, delta-, and epsilon-tubulins are among the five distinct families that make up the tubulin superfamily, and a sixth family is only found in kinetoplastid protozoa. The proteins that make up microtubules, -tubulin and -tubulin, are the most prevalent members of the tubulin family. Microtubules play a crucial role in many cellular processes. They assist in keeping the cell's structure intact.
