General description
Tubulins, major components of the cellular cytoskeleton, form microtubules that are critical for cellular structure, migration, cell division and intracellular trafficking. There are at least three types of tubulins, alpha, beta and gamma. Each has a molecular weight of approximately 55 kDa. Microtubules are large structures (300 angstrom diameter) composed of alternating alpha and beta subunits. Compounds that block microtubule formation, such as Taxol and the vinca alkaloids, inhibit cell division and are effective anti-cancer agents.
Specificity
MAB1864 recognizes the α subunit of tubulin-specificity binding to so called Tyr-Tubulin, which is produced by post-translational modification of tubulin. The epitope recognized by this antibody has been extensively studied and would appear to be a linear sequence requiring an aromatic residue at the C-terminus, with the two adjacent amino acids being negatively charged (represented by Gly-Gly-Tyr in Tyr-Tubulin). The antibody has been used in epitope tagging procedures to detect proteins tagged with a C-terminal Gly-Gly-Phe epitope. These sequence requirements have been reported to result in some cross-reactivity with other proteins in certain circumstances, including E. coli rec A and oxidized actin.

Microtubules and their associated proteins (MAPs) underpin the polarity of specialised cells. Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is one such MAP with a multifunctional agenda that requires precise intracellular localisations. Although APC has been found to associate with kinesin-2 subfamily members
