AUG8 binds to microtubule plus-ends in vivo. Time-lapse imaging revealed that AUG8-GFP (green) specifically associates with the rapidly growing plus-ends of microtubules (labeled with mCherry-TUA5; red). Arrowheads indicate AUG8-GFP movement. Scale bar = 5 μm. (Adapted from Cao et al. [2013], Figure 4B.)
