Mol. Genet. 19:4462-4473(2010). 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 non-exchangeable site on the alpha-chain. TUBB3 CC plays a critical role in proper axon guidance and mantainance. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Dimer of alpha and beta chains. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expression is primarily restricted to central CC and peripheral nervous system. Greatly increased expression in CC most cancerous tissues. CC -!- DOMAIN: The highly acidic C-terminal region may bind cations such CC as calcium. CC -!- PTM: Some glutamate residues at the C-terminus are CC polyglutamylated. This modification occurs exclusively on CC glutamate residues and results in polyglutamate chains on the CC gamma-carboxyl group. Also monoglycylated but not polyglycylated CC due to the absence of functional TTLL10 in human. Monoglycylation CC is mainly limited to tubulin incorporated into axonemes (cilia and CC flagella) whereas glutamylation is prevalent in neuronal cells, CC centrioles, axonemes, and the mitotic spindle. Both modifications CC can coexist on the same protein on adjacent residues, and lowering CC glycylation levels increases polyglutamylation, and reciprocally. CC The precise function of such modifications is still unclear but CC they regulate the assembly and dynamics of axonemal microtubules CC (Probable). CC -!- PTM: Phosphorylated on Ser-172 by CDK1 during the cell cycle, from CC metaphase to telophase, but not in interphase. This CC phosphorylation inhibits tubulin incorporation into microtubules. CC -!- DISEASE: Defects in TUBB3 are the cause of congenital fibrosis of CC extraocular muscles type 3A (CFEOM3A) [MIM:600638]. A congenital CC ocular motility disorder marked by restrictive ophthalmoplegia CC affecting extraocular muscles innervated by the oculomotor and/or CC trochlear nerves. It is clinically characterized by anchoring of CC the eyes in downward gaze, ptosis, and backward tilt of the head. CC Congenital fibrosis of extraocular muscles type 3 presents as a CC non-progressive, autosomal dominant disorder with variable CC expression. Patients may be bilaterally or unilaterally affected, CC and their oculo-motility defects range from complete CC ophthalmoplegia (with the eyes fixed in a hypo- and exotropic CC position), to mild asymptomatic restrictions of ocular movement. CC Ptosis, refractive error, amblyopia, and compensatory head CC positions are associated with the more severe forms of the CC disorder. In some cases the ocular phenotype is accompanied by CC additional features including developmental delay, corpus callosum CC agenesis, basal ganglia dysmorphism, facial weakness, CC polyneuropathy. CC -!- DISEASE: Defects in TUBB3 are the cause of cortical dysplasia CC complex with other brain malformations (CDCBM) [MIM:614039]. CDCBM CC is a disorder of aberrant neuronal migration and disturbed axonal CC guidance. Affected individuals have mild to severe mental CC retardation, strabismus, axial hypotonia, and spasticity. Brain CC imaging shows variable malformations of cortical development, CC including polymicrogyria, gyral disorganization, and fusion of the CC basal ganglia, as well as thin corpus callosum, hypoplastic CC brainstem, and dysplastic cerebellar vermis. Extraocular muscles CC are not involved. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the tubulin family.
