Abstract
⺠Alpha tubulin is associated with PADI6 at the oocyte cytoplasmic lattices. ⺠PADI6 and the oocyte lattices play a critical role in the redistribution of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum during oocyte maturation. ⺠Organelles are diffusely distributed in PADI6-null oocytes and appear to be dissociated from microtubules. ⺠PADI6-null oocytes appear to lack stable acetylated cytoplasmic microtubules.
