Target

  • 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.

  • Sequence similarities

    Belongs to the tubulin family.

  • Post-translational
    modifications

    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 chains 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.

The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized in 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 5 min then blocked in 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1hr. The cells were then incubated with ab195889 at 1/250 dilution (shown in orange) overnight at +4°C. Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI.

    This product gave a positive signal in 100% methanol (10 min) fixed MEF1 cells under the same testing conditions.
