TUBB3 - tubulin beta 3 class III Gene
Also Known as CDCBM; FEOM3; TUBB4; CDCBM1; CFEOM3; beta-4; CFEOM3A
Species: Homo sapiens
About TUBB3
This gene has 16 transcripts (splice variants), 148 orthologues, 23 paralogues and is associated with 7 phenotypes. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 82.3), testis (RPKM 29.3) and 18 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a class III member of the beta tubulin protein family. Beta tubulins are one of two core protein families (alpha and beta tubulins) that heterodimerize and assemble to form microtubules. This protein is primarily expressed in neurons and may be involved in neurogenesis and axon guidance and maintenance. Mutations in this gene are the cause of congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles type 3. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 6. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
