Eukaryotic microtubules are tubular polymers of tubulin that are a major component of the cytoskeleton. They play an essential role in diverse cellular functions, including migration, mitosis, and trafficking, and are also critical for normal development. β- and α-tubulins comprise the two core protein families that heterodimerize and assemble into each microtubule filament. There are multiple β- and α-tubulins isotypes, with each showing unique tumoral and tissue-specific distribution. TUBB4A is a β–tubulin primarily expressed in nervous tissue and moderate expression in testis. Mutations in TUBB4A cause hypermyelinating leukodystrophy-6 and autosomal dominant torsion dystonia -4.

- Recommended Usage
-
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by Western blotting. For Western blotting, the suggested use of this reagent is 0.1 - 1.0 µg per ml (1:500-1:5000 dilution). It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.
- Application Notes
-
Because of complete sequence homology, this clone is also predicted to recognize TUBB4A in higher eukaryotes, including rat, monkey, pig, bovine, and canine. This clone was generated using full-length recombinant TUBB4A as an immunogen. However, due to high sequence homology, this clone may also recognize other members of the ß-Tubulin family, notably TUBB2A, TUBB3, TUBB4B, and TUBB8. Because these ß-Tubulins have a similar molecular weight as TUBB4A, we do not recommend using this antibody as a TUBB4A-specific antibody. This clone was generated using a more defined immunogen (recombinant TUBB4A) than our existing ß-Tubulin clone, TU27/Tubulin (Cat. No. 903401), which was generated against taxol-assembled microtubules (mixed tubulins).
