beta-Tubulin
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a beta tubulin protein. This protein forms a dimer with alpha tubulin and acts as a structural component of microtubules. Mutations in this gene cause cortical dysplasia, complex, with other brain malformations 6. Alternative splicing results in multiple splice variants. There are multiple pseudogenes for this gene on chromosomes 1, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 13. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2014]
Uniprot Description
Function: Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. It binds two moles of GTP, one at an exchangeable site on the beta chain and one at a non-exchangeable site on the alpha chain.
Subunit structure: Dimer of alpha and beta chains. May interact with RNABP10
By similarity. Interacts with PIFO. Interacts with MX1
By similarity. Ref.16
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm › cytoskeleton.
Tissue specificity: Ubiquitously expressed with highest levels in spleen, thymus and immature brain. Ref.15
Domain: The highly acidic C-terminal region may bind cations such as calcium.
Post-translational modification: Some glutamate residues at the C-terminus are polyglutamylated. This modification occurs exclusively on glutamate residues and results in polyglutamate chains on the gamma-carboxyl group. Also monoglycylated but not polyglycylated due to the absence of functional TTLL10 in human. Monoglycylation is mainly limited to tubulin incorporated into axonemes (cilia and flagella) whereas glutamylation is prevalent in neuronal cells, centrioles, axonemes, and the mitotic spindle. Both modifications can coexist on the same protein on adjacent residues, and lowering glycylation levels increases polyglutamylation, and reciprocally. The precise function of such modifications is still unclear but they regulate the assembly and dynamics of axonemal microtubules
Probable.
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the tubulin family.

Product Notes
The beta-Tubulin tubb (Catalog #AAA395081) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The beta-Tubulin reacts with Human, Mouse, rat, monkey, rabbit, chicken and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's beta-Tubulin can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA), Dot Blot (DB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the beta-Tubulin tubb for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "beta-Tubulin, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
