Biological function summary

Detyrosinated alpha Tubulin impacts important cellular functions. It is an integral part of the microtubule network. Microtubules provide structural support to the cell aiding in intracellular transport and cell shape maintenance. The detyrosination of alpha tubulin contributes to the regulation of microtubule stability which is essential for accurate chromosome segregation during mitosis. Furthermore the detyrosination influences interactions with microtubule-associated proteins and motor proteins affecting their binding affinity and activity.

Pathways

Detyrosinated alpha Tubulin is significant in cellular signaling and transport. It is an important part of the microtubule-dependent transport pathways that facilitate the movement of cellular components including vesicles and organelles. The detyrosination of alpha tubulin influences its interaction with motor proteins such as kinesins and dyneins which are responsible for directional transport along microtubules. Additionally alterations in tubulin detyrosination affect the Wnt signaling pathway impacting cellular processes such as proliferation and differentiation.
