Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

GTP is hydrolyzed during a cycle of microtubule assembly and disassembly. GTPase proteins interact with microtubules to promote their assembly and disassembly, with the hydrolysis of GTP providing the energy for these processes. ATP, TTP, and CTP are not directly involved in microtubule assembly and disassembly.
