Abstract
In this article, we will summarize recent progress in understanding the mechanical origins of rigidity, strength, resiliency and stress transmission in the MT cytoskeleton using reconstituted networks formed from purified components. We focus on the role of network architecture, crosslinker compliance and dynamics, and molecular determinants of single filament elasticity, while highlighting open questions and future directions for this work.
