To understand the action of some microtubule target agents. Can anybody help me with a good protocol or work design to analyse depolymerisation of microtubule
Could you be a little more specific related to what you want to study. As such depolymerization can be studied using dilution studies and cold treatment.
The most simple assay I can think of is to estimate microtubule polymerization by a turbudumetry assay.
Here is an example:

You can also try to separate microtubules from dimeric tubulin by ultracentrifugation (100,00 g) and then quantify tubulin in supernatant and pellet by Western Blotting, like here:
