Tubg1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable GTP binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and microtubule nucleator activity. Involved in meiotic spindle organization. Located in several cellular components, including condensed nuclear chromosome; microtubule cytoskeleton; and non-motile cilium. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; eye; head mesenchyme; heart; and respiratory system. Used to study complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations 4. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations 4; inclusion body myositis; and muscular disease. Orthologous to human TUBG1 (tubulin gamma 1).

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 Tubg1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
