It weighs approximately 50 kDa. This protein is expressed in various tissues including the nervous system and muscles. It plays a role in maintaining cellular structure and functions in cellular transport and division.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nTubulin Alpha 4A is involved in the dynamic assembly and disassembly of microtubules contributing to cell shape and intracellular transport. It forms part of the microtubule complex and interacts with other tubulin isoforms to provide stability and flexibility to microtubule structures. This protein is essential for dividing cells as it supports the mitotic spindle's function during cell division.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe TUBA4A protein actively participates in cytoskeleton regulation and signal transduction. It is part of the MAPK signaling pathway important for cell division and differentiation. Components like MAP kinases and related tubulins work together within these pathways to mediate cellular responses to various stimuli facilitating critical cell functions and adaptability.\u003cbr\u003e\nTUBA4A has associations with neurodegenerative conditions and cancers. Mutations in TUBA4A have a link to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) where disruptions in microtubule function lead to neuronal damage. Additionally aberrant expression of TUBA4A may contribute to tumor progression where interactions with proteins like beta-tubulin disrupt cellular adhesion and division mechanisms.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854153502889,"sku":"ab228701","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab228701","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
