Figure 6.

Microtubules motion depends on their relative position within the cell. (A) (Grayscale image) EGFP-XTP cell showing some tracked filament segments in the perinuclear region (circleheads) or near the cortex (arrowheads). (Lines) Vectors defined by the initial and final positions determined for each segment. Scale bar, 10 μm. The MLSD data were fitted using the anomalous diffusion model (Eq. 7). Box plots of the anomalous diffusion exponent α (B) and preexponential factor A (C) obtained by fitting Eq. 7. The figure includes data from 51 filaments from five different cells.
