Physical interactions of Tuba1

  • Calponin interacts with both the alpha and beta tubulins and only slightly with the tyrosinated and acetylated form of alpha tubulin [22].
 

Regulatory relationships of Tuba1

 

Other interactions of Tuba1

  • In addition, there is a distinct tau-binding site at the amino-terminal region of alpha-tubulin. tau factors but not MAP2 displayed strong interaction with a peptide derived from the amino-terminal domain of alpha-tubulin between positions 1 and 75 [24].
  • The chemical cross-linked products of calponin and synthesized peptides (KDYEEVGVDSVEGE; alpha-KE) derived from the C-terminal region of alpha tubulin and (YQQYQDATADEQG; beta-YG) and (GEFEEEGEEDEA; beta-GA) from that of beta tubulin were detected by mass spectrometry [22].
  • In contrast, following bFGF treatment the distributions of tyrosinated and acetylated alpha-tubulin were identical, a state associated with a diminution of microtubule dynamics [25].
  • Double immunofluorescence for GAP-43, a marker for growth cones, and alpha-tubulin, a marker for axonal microtubules, showed that MMP-9-treated cells had increased distribution of alpha-tubulin but no effect on GAP-43 [26].
  • In addition to enumerating these S-nitrosylation sites, the method revealed endogenous SNO-Cys modification sites on cerebellum proteins, including alpha-tubulin, beta-tubulin, GAPDH, and dihydropyrimidinase-related protein-2 [27].
