General description
Microtubules are involved in a wide variety of cellular activities ranging from mitosis and transport events to cell movement and the maintenance of cell shape. Tubulin itself is a globular protein which consists of two polypeptides (alpha and beta tubulin). Alpha and beta tubulin dimers are assembled to 13 protofilaments that form a microtubule of 22 nm diameter. Tyrosine ligase ads a C-terminal tyrosin to monomeric alpha tubulin. Assembled microtubules can again be detyrosinated by a cytoskeleton associated carboxypeptidase. Detyrosinated alpha tubulin is referred to as Glu-tubulin. Another post-translational modification of detyrosinated alpha tubulin is C-terminal polyglutamylation which is characteristic for microtubules in neuronal cells and the mitotic spindle.
Specificity
Expected to cross-react with mammals, sea urchin, plants, not yeast (Paturle-Lafanechere, L., 1991).
The antibody specifically recognizes the detyrosinated form (Glu tubulin) of the tubulin alpha chain (Bianchi, M., 2006; Goulimari, P., 2005).
Immunogen
Peptide corresponding to the C-terminal of Glu tubulin.
Application
Anti-Tubulin Antibody, Detyrosinated is an antibody against Tubulin for use in IC, IH(P) and WB.
Immunohistochemistry:
A previous lot was used on either frozen or paraffin embedded, fixed tissue (Gundersen, G.G., 1984): 1:200-1:500 dilution.
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

In neurons, the polarized distribution of vesicles and other cellular materials is established through molecular motors that steer selective transport between axons and dendrites. It is currently unclear whether interactions between kinesin motors and microtubule-binding proteins can steer polarized transport.

RAS signalling through phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-Kinase) has been shown to have an essential role in tumour initiation and maintenance. RAS also regulates cell motility and tumour invasiveness, but the role of direct RAS binding to PI3-Kinase in this remains uncertain.
