Tubulin alpha-1A chain (TUBA1A), also known as Alpha-tubulin 3, is the principal alpha tubulin in morphologically differentiated neurons. Alpha tubulin dimerizes with beta Tubulin to form microtubules. Microtubules mediate transport of proteins and endosomes within cells, and TUBA1A has been shown to interact with metabotropic glutamate receptor 7 (receptor trafficking), synuclein alpha (synaptic plasticity), and N-syndecan (neurite outgrowth). This gene is mutated in malformations of cortical development, including Lissencephaly resulting in microcephaly, developmental delay and early-onset epileptic seizures.

Detection of Human, Mouse, and Rat alpha Tubulin by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line, Jurkat human acute T cell leukemia cell line, NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line, Neuro-2A mouse neuroblastoma cell line, and Rat-2 rat embryonic fibroblast cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.05 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat a Tubulin Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB9344) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF018). A specific band was detected for a Tubulin at approximately 52 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.alpha Tubulin in SH‑SY5Y Human Cell Line.
a Tubulin was detected in immersion fixed SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cell line using Mouse Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat a Tubulin Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB9344) at 8 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (yellow; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Cells on Coverslips.alpha Tubulin in Human Brain.
a Tubulin was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human brain using Mouse Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat a Tubulin Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB9344) at 5 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Mouse IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC001). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to neuronal cytoplasm.

Effects of miR-210-KO in M0 macrophages. (A) Enrichr dot-plot representation for pathways enriched among differentially expressed genes in miR-210-KO versus WT M0 macrophages. The signed odds ratio (x-axis) indicates over-representation in up-regulated (positive) or down-regulated (negative) genes. (B) Western blot analysis of pro-IL1 beta levels in M0 macrophages, with alpha -tubulin used as a loading control. Densitometry analysis performed using TotalLab. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM, n = 3 mice per condition. Statistical significance was determined using Student’s t test, *p< 0.05. (C) ELISA quantification of IL-6, TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta in the supernatant of M0 macrophages. Data are presented as mean ± SEM, n = 3 for IL-6 and IL-1 beta and n=4 for TNF-alpha.

Effects of eHSP70 on the expression of MAPKs in NuLi-1 cells. (a) Representative Western blots and bar chart show that exposure to eHSP70 over 24 h did not change the level of AKT (left) or p38 MAPK (right) expression in NuLi-1 cells. Bars show mean ± S.E.M. of three independent experiments. (b) Representative Western blots and subsequent image analysis show that eHSP70 significantly reduced ERK1/2 expression and (c) phosphorylation of ERK1/2 over 24 h in NuLi-1 cells. Bars show mean ± S.E.M. of five different human primary bronchial EC lines. p-values are indicated as follows: * p ≤ 0.05; ** p ≤ 0.01.
