Entrez Gene summary for TUBB1 Gene:

This gene encodes a member of the beta tubulin protein family. Beta tubulins are one of two core protein families

(alpha and beta tubulins) that heterodimerize and assemble to form microtubules. This protein is specifically

expressed in platelets and megakaryocytes and may be involved in proplatelet production and platelet release. A

mutations in this gene is associated with autosomal dominant macrothrombocytopenia. Two pseudogenes of this gene

are found on chromosome Y.(provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010)

GeneCards Summary for TUBB1 Gene:

TUBB1 (tubulin, beta 1 class VI) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with TUBB1 include macrothrombocytopenia, autosomal dominant, tubb1-related, and megakaryocytic leukemia. GO annotations related to this gene include GTP binding and structural constituent of cytoskeleton. An important paralog of this gene is LOC260334.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: TBB1_HUMAN, Q9H4B7

Function: Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. It 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 (By similarity)

summary for TUBB1 Gene:

Microtubules are cylindrical tubes of 20-25 nm in diameter. They are composed of protofilaments which are in

turn composed of alpha- and beta-tubulin polymers. Each microtubule is polarized, at one end alpha-subunits

are exposed (-) and at the other beta-subunits are exposed (+). Microtubules act as a scaffold to determine

cell shape, and provide a backbone for cell organelles and vesicles to move on, a process that requires

motor proteins. The major microtubule motor proteins are kinesin, which generally moves towards the (+) end

of the microtubule, and dynein, which generally moves towards the (-) end. Microtubules also form the

spindle fibers for separating chromosomes during mitosis.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: TBB1_HUMAN, Q9H4B7 (See protein sequence)

Recommended Name: Tubulin beta-1 chain

Size: 451 amino acids; 50327 Da

Subunit: Dimer of alpha and beta chains. A typical microtubule is a hollow water-filled tube with an outer

diameter of 25 nm and an inner diameter of 15 nM. Alpha-beta heterodimers associate head-to-tail to form

protofilaments running lengthwise along the microtubule wall with the beta-tubulin subunit facing the microtubule

plus end conferring a structural polarity. Microtubules usually have 13 protofilaments but different

protofilament numbers can be found in some organisms and specialized cells. Interacts with RANBP10

Post-translational modifications:

Some glutamate residues at the C-terminus are polyglutamylated. This modification occurs exclusively on glutamate

residues and results in polyglutamate chains on the gamma-carboxyl group. Also monoglycylated but not

polyglycylated due to the absence of functional TTLL10 in human. Monoglycylation is mainly limited to tubulin

incorporated into axonemes (cilia and flagella) whereas glutamylation is prevalent in neuronal cells, centrioles,

axonemes, and the mitotic spindle. Both modifications can coexist on the same protein on adjacent residues, and

lowering glycylation levels increases polyglutamylation, and reciprocally. The precise function of such

modifications is still unclear but they regulate the assembly and dynamics of axonemal microtubules (Probable)¹
