It has a molecular mass of about 50 kDa. TUBA1B distributes widely across various tissues with elevated expression in neuronal cells. It characterizes by its involvement in the assembly and stabilization of microtubules which are essential for maintaining cell shape promoting intracellular transport and facilitating chromosome segregation during cell division.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nTUBA1B contributes significantly to the formation and function of the cytoskeletal microtubule network. It functions as part of the heterodimeric complex pairing with beta-tubulin to form the building blocks of microtubules. These structures are central to diverse cellular activities such as intracellular trafficking axonal transport in neurons and the migration and division of cells. In this implicit role TUBA1B influences the dynamics and stability of microtubule polymers impacting the cell’s ability to respond to mechanical and environmental stimuli.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nTUBA1B is integral to the mitotic spindle assembly pathway and neuronal signaling. In the context of these pathways TUBA1B's interactions with proteins like dynein and kinesin facilitate its role in intracellular transport and spindle orientation during cell division. TUBA1B also participates in neuronal development pathways where its association with tau and other microtubule-associated proteins contributes to the formation of neuronal axons and dendrites.\u003cbr\u003e\nAlterations in TUBA1B have been linked to certain neurodevelopmental disorders and cancers such as lissencephaly and glioblastoma. In lissencephaly mutations in TUBA1B disrupt proper neuronal migration contributing to the abnormal brain development associated with the disorder. In glioblastoma TUBA1B's aberrant expression impacts microtubule dynamics aiding in cancer cell proliferation and resistance to therapies. These pathological conditions often involve interactions with other proteins including those found in the microtubule-associated protein family such as MAP2 and MAPT which further influence disease progression.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843931426985,"sku":"ab160967","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab160967","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
