Abstract
This work represents a contribution to modelling nonlinear dynamics of microtubules, the basic components of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton. Their dynamics can be explained in terms of kink and antikink solitary waves. Special attention was paid to the stability of solitonic solutions of differential equations describing the dynamics of microtubules. It is shown that subsonic solitons are stable, while supersonic ones are not.
