General description

Monoclonal Anti-β-Tubulin I (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the SAP.4G5 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from a BALB/c mouse. Tubulin is the major building block of microtubules, an intracellular cylindrical filamentous structure, that is present in almost all eukaryotic cells. Tubulin exists in all cells as a 100 kDa protein, which assembles from heterodimers of α-tubulin and β-tubulin; both have a molecular weight of 55 kDa and share considerable homology.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal sequence of ß-tubulin isotype I, conjugated to BSA

Application

Anti-β-Tubulin I antibody, Mouse monoclonal has been used in:
  • immunoblotting
  • immunofluorescence
  • immunohistochemistry

Biochem/physiol Actions

β-Tubulin I is also useful in deducing the role that different tubulin isotypes play in nerve development, function or maintenance.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

The seven mammalian isotypes of beta tubulin are strikingly similar in amino acid sequence. The differences in isotypic sequence, although small, are nonetheless conserved in evolution, which suggests that they may confer distinct functional roles. If so, such roles should

Tubulin, the subunit protein of microtubules, is an alpha/beta heterodimer. In many organisms, both alpha and beta consist of various isotypes. Although the isotypes differ in their tissue distributions, the question of whether the isotypes perform different functions in vivo
