How is dynamic instability regulated by GTP hydrolysis? O GTP hydrolysis promotes addition of tubulin heterodimers to the plus end O Alpha-tubulin subunit does not hydrolyze GTP O GTP hydrolysis reaching the plus-end promotes catastrophe O GTP-bound heterodimers are added to the plus end O Tubulin heterodimers are large and need many non-covalent bonds to become stable
