Tubulin alpha-1A chain (TUBA1A)

Target
TUBA1A
Molecular classification
Tubulin, Cytoskeletal protein
01

Overview

Tubulin alpha-1A chain is a protein that forms part of the microtubules, which are crucial components of the cytoskeleton. It is particularly important for neural development through its role in neuronal migration. Mutations in this protein lead to severe neurodevelopmental disorders, notably lissencephaly, due to impaired cortical formation.
