Tubulin beta-3 chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TUBB3 gene. This gene encodes a class III member of the beta tubulin protein family. Beta tubulins are one of two core protein families (alpha and beta tubulins) that heterodimerize and assemble to form microtubules. This protein is primarily expressed in neurons and may be involved in neurogenesis and axon guidance and maintenance. Mutations in this gene are the cause of congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles type 3. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 6.
Optimal dilution of the Beta III Tubulin antibody should be determined by the researcher.
Amino acids 383-412 (EQFTAMFRRKAFLHWYTGEGMDEMEFTEAE-human) were used as the immunogen for the Beta III Tubulin antibody.
After reconstitution, the Beta III Tubulin antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
