ZooMAb antibodies represent an entirely new generation of recombinant monoclonal antibodies.

Each ZooMAb antibody is manufactured using our proprietary recombinant expression system, purified to homogeneity, and precisely dispensed to produce robust and highly reproducible lot-to-lot consistency. Only top-performing clones are released for use by researchers. Each antibody is validated for high specificity and affinity across multiple applications, including its most commonly used application. ZooMAb antibodies are reliably available and ready to ship when you need them.

Target description

Tubulin beta-1 chain (UniProt: Q9H4B7) is encoded by the TUBB1 gene (Gene ID: 81027) in human. Tubulin is one of several members of a small family of globular proteins, which polymerize to form microtubules. The most common members of the tubulin family are alpha-tubulin and beta-tubulin that assemble onto microtubules forming large polymers. During polymerization the /β-tubulin heterodimers arrange into linear protofilaments that associate laterally to form the hollow microtubule cylinders. Within a protofilament, the tubulin heterodimers associate in a head-to-tail fashion, which makes microtubules intrinsically polar. The -tubulin within the dimer is oriented toward the plus end and the β-tubulin subunit toward the minus end. Tubulin binds two moles of GTP, one at an exchangeable site on the beta chain and one at a non-exchangeable site on the alpha chain. GTP-binding site of beta-tubulin is localized to amino acids 140-146. Multiple isoforms of β Tubulin have been described in mammalian tissues. β1 and β4 are reported to be present throughout the cytosol, β2 is localized in the nuclei and nucleoplasm, and β3 is a neuron-specific cytoskeletal protein. β1-tubulin is the most divergent at the amino acid sequence level. It is expressed exclusively in megakaryocytes and platelets in humans and plays an important role in the formation of platelets. It appears late in differentiation and localizes to microtubule shafts and coils within proplatelets. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
