Tuba1b Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including GTP binding activity; GTPase activity; and ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to interleukin-4. Located in cytoplasmic microtubule. Is expressed in several structures, including cerebral cortex; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and retina layer. Orthologous to human TUBA1B (tubulin alpha 1b).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Tuba1b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
