Why does release (the rate of release of minus ends from the nucleation site of the centrosome, allowing the depolymerization of minus ends) cause the decrease of the number and length of microtubules?
Why does nucleation rate cause the number of microtubules to be proportional to nucleation rate but the length of microtubules to be inversely proportional to nucleation rate?
