Using the monoclonal antibody MA-01, which recognizes a 210-kDa protein in cell-free extracts, spindle and cytoplasmic microtubules were visualized in budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In additional, a spot-like staining was found beneath the plasma membrane, revealing in part correlation with F-actin distribution. This pattern was common for cells of all cell-cycle stages. The interaction of the protein recognized by MA-01 with microtubules was confirmed in the double labeling with a polyclonal antitubulin antibody and by the sensitivity of intranuclear structures stained by MA-01 to the microtubule disrupting drug nocodazole.
