Moreover, immunofluorescence staining of α-tubulin revealed that KIF2C knockdown caused significant aggregation of tubulin fibers, as well as a noticeable decrease in size and entanglement of tubulin fibers in comparison to the regular extended, orderly structure observed in control cells (Figure 10C and 10D), thereby strongly indicating that KIF2C has a considerable role in regulating microtubule dynamics and thus maintaining high cancer cell migration and motility abilities. The gene discussed is KIF2C; the disease is cancer.
