High impact information on TTLL7

  • Consistent with having a role in the growth of MAP2-positive neurites, TTLL7 accumulated within a MAP2-enriched somatodendritic portion of superior cervical ganglion, as did polyglutamylated beta-tubulin [1].
  • Following stimulation of PC12 cells with nerve growth factor to differentiate, the level of TTLL7 increased concomitantly with polyglutamylation of beta-tubulin [1].
  • Consistent with these findings, knockdown of TTLL7 in a primary culture of superior cervical ganglion neurons caused a loss of polyglutamylated beta-tubulin [1].
 

Anatomical context of TTLL7

  • TTLL7 Is a Mammalian beta-Tubulin Polyglutamylase Required for Growth of MAP2-positive Neurites [1].
