TUBE1 tubulin epsilon 1 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 51175)

Symbol: TUBE1

Full name: tubulin epsilon 1

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: TUBE; dJ142L7.2

Summary: This gene encodes a member of the tubulin superfamily. This protein localizes to the centriolar sub-distal appendages that are associated with the older of the two centrioles after centrosome duplication. This protein plays a central role in organization of the microtubules during centriole duplication. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 5.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]

Expression: Broad expression in testis (RPKM 21.9), endometrium (RPKM 10.2) and 25 other tissues

Orthologs: mouse

Gene size: 16820bp

Exon count: 13
