Microtubule organization and organelle distribution in axons and dendrites
Axons have tau-bound microtubules of uniform orientation, whereas dendrites have microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2)-bound microtubules of mixed orientation. Dendrites also contain organelles that are not found in axons, such as rough endoplasmic reticulum, polyribosomes and Golgi outposts.
