Related Product Information for
anti-alpha-Tubulin antibody
There are five tubulins in human cells: alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and epsilon. Tubulins are conserved across species. They form heterodimers, which multimerize to form a microtubule filament. An alpha and beta tubulin heterodimer is the basic structural unit of microtubules. The heterodimer does not come apart, once formed. The alpha and beta tubulins, which are each about 55 kDa MW, are homologous but not identical. Alpha, beta, and gamma tubulins have all been used as loading controls. Tubulin expression may vary according to resistance to antimicrobial and antimitotic drugs.

UniProt Comments for alpha-Tubulin
TUBA1B: 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. Dimer of alpha and beta chains. Belongs to the tubulin family.
Protein type: Cytoskeletal; Motility/polarity/chemotaxis
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12q13.12
Cellular Component: microtubule; cytoplasmic microtubule
Molecular Function: GTPase activity; protein binding; GTP binding; structural constituent of cytoskeleton; ubiquitin protein ligase binding; double-stranded RNA binding; structural molecule activity
Biological Process: protein polymerization; 'de novo' posttranslational protein folding; cellular protein metabolic process; protein folding; cell division; cytoskeleton-dependent intracellular transport; microtubule cytoskeleton organization and biogenesis; microtubule-based process
Research Articles on alpha-Tubulin
1. Data indicate that the derivatives exhibited much better potency to inhibit tubulin polymerization but a decreased activity to inhibit Hsp27 chaperone function.
