TUBA1A
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. Belongs to the tubulin family. Expressed at a high level in fetal brain. 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
