Tubulin alpha-1A chain

UniProtKB accession:  P68369

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules, protein filaments consisting of alpha- and beta-tubulin heterodimers (By similarity). Microtubules grow by the addition of GTP-tubulin dimers to the microtubule end, where a stabilizing cap forms (By similarity). Below the cap, tubulin dimers are in GDP-bound state, owing to GTPase activity of alpha-tubulin (By similarity).
