Description

General description

Tubulin alpha-1 chain (UniProt P02552) is encoded by the TUBA1C (also known as TUBA1) gene (Gene ID 429035) in Gallus gallus (Chicken) species. Microtubules are cytoskeletal filaments composed of of alpha-/beta-tubulin heterodimers that self-assemble head-to-tail to form protofilaments and laterally to form a hollow tubes. Various post-translational modifications (PTMs), including acetylation, polyglutamylation, polyglycylation, detyrosination, phosphorylation, and palmitoylation, can regulate the polymerization properties of tubulins and/or their interactions with microtubule associated proteins (MAPs) and motor proteins.

Specificity

Clone DM1A recognizes α-Tubulin, MW 50-60 kDa. The epitope recognized by this antibody has been mapped to the C-terminal 25 amino acids (AALEKDYEEVGVDSVEGEGEEEGEE).
