| + | [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/D0VWY9_SHEEP D0VWY9_SHEEP]] Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. It binds two moles of GTP, one at an exchangeable site on the beta chain and one at a non-exchangeable site on the alpha chain (By similarity).[RuleBase:RU003505] | ||

| + | Microtubules are cytoskeletal filaments of eukaryotic cells made of alphabeta-tubulin heterodimers. Structural studies of non-microtubular tubulin rely mainly on molecules that prevent its self-assembly and are used as crystallization chaperones. Here we identified artificial proteins from an alphaRep library that are specific to alpha-tubulin. Turbidity experiments indicate that these alphaReps impede microtubule assembly in a dose-dependent manner and total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy further shows that they specifically block growth at the microtubule (-) end. Structural data indicate that they do so by targeting the alpha-tubulin longitudinal surface. Interestingly, in one of the complexes studied, the alpha subunit is in a conformation that is intermediate between the ones most commonly observed in X-ray structures of tubulin and those seen in the microtubule, emphasizing the plasticity of tubulin. These alpha-tubulin-specific alphaReps broaden the range of tools available for the mechanistic study of microtubule dynamics and its regulation. | ||
