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.
Belongs to the tubulin family.
Undergoes a tyrosination/detyrosination cycle, the cyclic removal and re-addition of a C-terminal tyrosine residue by the enzymes tubulin tyrosine carboxypeptidase (TTCP) and tubulin tyrosine ligase (TTL), respectively.
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.
Acetylation of alpha-tubulins at Lys-40 stabilizes microtubules and affects affinity and processivity of microtubule motors. This modification has a role in multiple cellular functions, ranging from cell motility, cell cycle progression or cell differentiation to intracellular trafficking and signaling.

All lanes : Anti-Tubulin (acetyl K40) antibody [6-11B-1] (ab11323) at 1/1000 dilution
Lane 1 : Whole animal lysate prepared from wild type (N2) C. Elegans worms.
Lane 2 : Whole animal lysate prepared from elpc-1 C. Elegans worms.
Lane 3 : Whole animal lysate prepared from elpc-3 C. Elegans worms.
Lane 4 : Whole animal lysate prepared from mec-12 (e1605) C. Elegans worms.
Lane 5 : Whole animal lysate prepared from mec-12 (e1607) C. Elegans worms.
Lysates/proteins at 20 µg per lane.
To measure acetylated α-tubulin levels by western blot, protein was extracted from young adult worms. To avoid protein degradation, worms were suspended in ice-cold extraction buffer containing proteinase inhibitors and rapidly frozen in liquid nitrogen. The frozen pellets were ground to a powder in a mortar.

ab11323 staining Tubulin (acetyl K40) in human glioblastoma tumor sphere cells by ICC/IF (Immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence). Cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with Triton X-100 0.1% in PBS and blocked with 0.5% BSA for 20 minutes at room temperature. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/100 in PBS + 0.5% BSA) for 1 hour at 4°C. An Alexa Fluor®488-conjugated Goat anti-mouse IgG polyclonal (1/400) was used as the secondary antibody. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue).
