Cell Biol. 101:852-861(1985). 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 nonexchangeable site on the alpha-chain. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Dimer of alpha and beta chains. CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitously expressed with highest levels in CC spleen, thymus and immature brain. CC -!- PTM: Undergoes a tyrosination/detyrosination cycle, the cyclic CC removal and re-addition of a C-terminal tyrosine residue by the CC enzymes tubulin tyrosine carboxypeptidase (TTCP) and tubulin CC tyrosine ligase (TTL), respectively (By similarity). CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the tubulin family.
