Gene Information

human ... TUBA1A(7846)

General description

Tubulin α 1A (TUBA1A) is a member of α-tubulin gene family. It is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 12q13.12. Tubulin α 1A is a vital structural subunit of microtubules that are temporarily expressed in almost all post-mitotic neurons during neuronal development. The encoded protein structure contains a core of two β-sheets enclosed by α-helices. TUBA1A is characterized with an amino-terminal domain having guanine nucleotide-binding region, an intermediate domain and a carboxy-terminal domain.

Immunogen

Tubulin antibody was raised against a 16 amino acid peptide near the amino terminus of human Tubulin.

Application

Anti-α-tubulin from chicken has been used for Western blotting and immunohistochemistry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Gene mutation of tubulin α-1A (TUBA1A) is observed in perisylvian asymmetrical polymicrogyria, polymicrogyria-like cortical dysplasia, and microlissencephaly in fetal cases. Alteration in the expression of the gene impairs neural migration and causes lissencephaly (LIS).

Features and Benefits

Evaluate our antibodies with complete peace of mind. If the antibody does not perform in your application, we will issue a full credit or replacement antibody. Learn more.

Linkage

The action of this antibody can be blocked using blocking peptide SBP3500023.
