Globular tubulin subunits comprise the microtubule building block, with Î±\/Î²-tubulin heterodimers forming the tubulin subunit common to all eukaryotic cells. Î³-tubulin is required to nucleate polymerization of tubulin subunits to form microtubule polymers. Many cell movements are mediated by microtubule action, including the beating of cilia and flagella, cytoplasmic transport of membrane vesicles, chromosome alignment during meiosis\/mitosis, and nerve-cell axon migration. These movements result from competitive microtubule polymerization and depolymerization or through the actions of microtubule motor proteins (1).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nalpha tubulin; Alpha-tubulin ubiquitous; Detyrosinated tubulin alpha-1B chain; K-ALPHA-1; TBA1B; TUBA1B; tubulin alpha 1b; Tubulin alpha-1B chain; Tubulin alpha-ubiquitous chain; Tubulin K-alpha-1; tubulin, alpha 1b; tubulin, alpha, ubiquitous\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Mouse IgG1","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800535060649,"sku":"8058S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-8058s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
