TUBB2B - tubulin beta 2B class IIb Gene
Also Known as CDCBM7; PMGYSA; bA506K6.1
Species: Homo sapiens
About TUBB2B
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 188 orthologues, 23 paralogues and is associated with 7 phenotypes. Biased expression in brain (RPKM 233.4), bone marrow (RPKM 22.7) and 11 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a beta isoform of tubulin, which binds GTP and is a major component of microtubules. This gene is highly similar to TUBB2A and TUBB2C. Defects in this gene are a cause of asymmetric polymicrogyria. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
