In histology, katanin can be studied using various techniques:
- Immunohistochemistry: This technique uses antibodies specific to katanin subunits to visualize their distribution within tissue samples. - Electron Microscopy: Provides detailed images of microtubules and their interactions with katanin at the cellular level. - Gene Knockout Models: Animal models with targeted disruptions of katanin genes can be used to study the effects of its absence on tissue structure and function.
