Monoclonal Anti-β-Tubulin III antibody produced in mouse

Description

• General description: Monoclonal Anti-μ Tubulin Isotype III (mouse IgG2b isotype) is derived from the SDL.3D10 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice.
• Specificity: The antibody specifically recognizes an epitope located on isotype III of β-tubulin. No cross-reactivity with other tubulin isotypes is observed. The antibody can stimulate microtubule assembly when reconstituted with tubulin and either tau or MAP2.
• Immunogen: synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal sequence of human β-tubulin isotype III coupled to BSA
• Application: It has also been used in immunofluorescence analysis.
• Biochem/physiol Actions: Tubulin β 3 class III (TUBB3) plays a vital role in nervous system development and axon guidance. Mutation of the gene encoding protein leads to the ocular motility disorder, congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscle type 3 (CFEOM3), and various neurological syndromes. Altered expression of the protein affects microtubule dynamics and microtubule-kinesin interactions. Increased expression of TUBB3 is observed in tumor tissues. Decreased expression of TUBB3 can be considered as an important marker for poor prognosis of cutaneous malignant melanoma. TUBB3 is implicated in the suppression of invasive growth of tumor tissue;therefore, it is considered to be a potential target for development of antitumor drugs.
