CC -!- FUNCTION: Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. It CC binds two moles of GTP, one at an exchangeable site on the beta CC chain and one at a non-exchangeable site on the alpha-chain. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Dimer of alpha and beta chains. CC -!- DOMAIN: The highly acidic C-terminal region may bind cations such CC as calcium. CC -!- PTM: Some glutamate residues at the C-terminus are CC polyglutamylated. This modification occurs exclusively on CC glutamate residues and results in polyglutamate chains on the CC gamma-carboxyl group. Also monoglycylated but not polyglycylated CC due to the absence of functional TTLL10 in human. Monoglycylation CC is mainly limited to tubulin incorporated into axonemes (cilia and CC flagella) whereas glutamylation is prevalent in neuronal cells, CC centrioles, axonemes, and the mitotic spindle. Both modifications CC can coexist on the same protein on adjacent residues, and lowering CC glycylation levels increases polyglutamylation, and reciprocally. CC The precise function of such modifications is still unclear but CC they regulate the assembly and dynamics of axonemal microtubules CC (Probable). CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the tubulin family.
