Description: Microtubules of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton perform essential and diverse functions and are composed of a heterodimer of alpha and beta tubulin. This MAb recognizes an epitope of alpha-tubulin. The alpha-tubulin is globular protein that exists in cells as part of soluble alpha/beta-tubulin dimer or it is polymerized into microtubules. In different species it is coded by multiple tubulin genes that form tubulin classes (in human 6 genes). Expressed tubulin genes are named tubulin isotypes. Some of the tubulin isotypes are expressed ubiquitously, while some have more restricted tissue expression. Alpha-tubulin is also subject of numerous post-translational modifications. Tubulin isotypes and their posttranslational modifications are responsible for multiple tubulin charge variants - tubulin isoforms. Heterogeneity of alpha-tubulin is concentrated in C-terminal structural domain
Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 1-115 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for the Alpha Tubulin antibody.
Storage: Store the Alpha Tubulin antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
