beta-I Tubulin Lysates

Microtubules are involved in a wide variety of cellular processes, including mitosis, morphogenesis, plateletformation, and mobility of cilia and flagella. Circulating platelets carry a single marginal microtubule coil that iswound in 8 to 12 turns and is responsible for platelet shape. TUBB1 is the major beta-tubulin expressed in plateletsand megakaryocytes and is required for optimal platelet assembly (Wang et al., 1986 (PubMed 3782288); Schulze et al.,2004 (PubMed 15315966)).(supplied by OMIM)
