About TTL

Cytogenetic location: 2q14.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:112,482,156-112,541,739 (from NCBI)

This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants) and 176 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 13.3), lung (RPKM 7.4) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

TTL is a cytosolic Enzyme involved in the posttranslational modification of alpha-tubulin (see MIM 602529). Alpha-tubulin within assembled microtubules is detyrosinated over time at the C terminus. After microtubule disassembly, TTL restores the tyrosine residues and consequently participates in a cycle of tubulin detyrosination and tyrosination (Erck et al., 2003 [PubMed 14571137]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
