for alpha Tubulin antibody (mAb) (Clone 5-B-1-2)Background
Microtubules of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton perform essential and diverse functions and are composed of a heterodimer of α-tubulin and β-tubulin. Alpha Tubulin expression is reduced in cells deficient in MeCP2, leading to conditions such as Rett syndrome and autistic-spectrum disorders.
for alpha Tubulin antibody (mAb) (Clone 5-B-1-2)Immunogen
This antibody was raised against total protein purified from sea urchin sperm axonemes.
for alpha Tubulin antibody (mAb) (Clone 5-B-1-2)Application Notes
This alpha Tubulin antibody (Clone 5-B-1-2) has been validated for use in immunofluorescence (1:500 - 1:2,500 dilution) and Western blot (1:1,000 - 1:10,000 dilution). Though raised against sea urchin alpha-tubulin, this antibody recognizes alpha-tubulin in all vertebrate species tested.
