anti-TUBB2B antibody
The protein encoded by this gene is a beta isoform of
tubulin, which binds GTP and is a major component of microtubules.
This gene is highly similar to TUBB2A and TUBB2C. Defects in this
gene are a cause of asymmetric polymicrogyria. [provided by

NCBI Summary for TUBB2B
The protein encoded by this gene is a beta isoform of tubulin, which binds GTP and is a major component of microtubules. This gene is highly similar to TUBB2A and TUBB2C. Defects in this gene are a cause of asymmetric polymicrogyria. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
UniProt Comments for TUBB2B
TUBB2B: 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. TUBB2B is implicated in neuronal migration. Defects in TUBB2B are a cause of polymicrogyria asymmetric (PMGA). PMGA is a malformation of the cortex in which the brain surface is irregular and characterized by an excessive number of small gyri with abnormal lamination. Belongs to the tubulin family.
Protein type: Cytoskeletal
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 6p25
Cellular Component: microtubule; cytoplasm; nucleus
Molecular Function: GTPase activity; protein binding; GTP binding; structural constituent of cytoskeleton
Biological Process: protein polymerization; 'de novo' posttranslational protein folding; cellular protein metabolic process; protein folding; neuron migration; transmembrane transport; microtubule-based process
Disease: Polymicrogyria, Symmetric Or Asymmetric
