Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules, a cylinder consisting of laterally associated linear protofilaments composed of alpha- and beta-tubulin heterodimers (PubMed:34996871). Microtubules grow by the addition of GTP-tubulin dimers to the microtubule end, where a stabilizing cap forms (PubMed:34996871). Below the cap, tubulin dimers are in GDP-bound state, owing to GTPase activity of alpha-tubulin (PubMed:34996871). TUBB3 plays a critical role in proper axon guidance and maintenance (PubMed:20074521). Binding of NTN1/Netrin-1 to its receptor UNC5C might cause dissociation of UNC5C from polymerized TUBB3 in microtubules and thereby lead to increased microtubule dynamics and axon repulsion (PubMed:28483977). Plays a role in dorsal root ganglion axon projection towards the spinal cord (PubMed:28483977).

Beta III tubulin often referred to as βIII tubulin or beta-tubulin 3 is a microtubule element involved in the cellular cytoskeleton structure. This protein with a molecular mass of approximately 55 kDa plays an important role in the development and maintenance of neuron structures. It is most prominently expressed in neurons within the central and peripheral nervous systems. In these cells beta III tubulin contributes to microtubule polymerization facilitating the formation of the intricate network necessary for cell shape intracellular transport and division.
Beta III tubulin acts in stabilizing microtubules which are essential for proper neuronal function. It exists as part of the tubulin dimer complex partnering with alpha-tubulin to form the building blocks of microtubules. This particular isotype is often used as a marker for neuronal differentiation due to its specific expression pattern in neural tissues. Its regulation and expression levels are important for neurogenesis and maintaining neuronal plasticity.
Beta III tubulin plays a role in neuron-specific intracellular transport and signaling pathways like the Rho GTPase and MAPK signaling pathways. These pathways are involved in cell cycle regulation and apoptotic processes. Relationships with other proteins such as kinesins and dyneins are important in these pathways influencing intracellular transport and signaling through binding and moving along the microtubule tracks created by beta-tubulin isotypes including beta III tubulin.
Abnormal beta III tubulin expression has been associated with cancer particularly in tumors originating from neuronal lineage such as glioblastomas. Overexpression or mutations can contribute to chemoresistance complicating treatment for certain types of cancer. Beta III tubulin is also linked to neurodevelopmental disorders as it affects proper neural network formation and stability. Its relationship with tumor protein p53 is noted in cancer pathways as p53 can influence beta III tubulin expression impacting cellular proliferation and apoptosis in oncogenic processes.
