General annotation (Comments)

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.

Subunit structure

Dimer of alpha and beta chains By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasmcytoskeleton By similarity.

Domain

The highly acidic C-terminal region may bind cations such as calcium.

Post-translational modification

Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR By similarity. Ref.4

Some glutamate residues at the C-terminus are either polyglutamylated or polyglycylated. These 2 modifications occur exclusively on glutamate residues and result in either polyglutamate or polyglycine chains on the gamma-carboxyl group. Glycylation 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 polyglycylation levels increases polyglutamylation, and reciprocally. The precise function of such modifications is still unclear but they are regulate the assembly and dynamics of axonemal microtubules.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the tubulin family.
