About TUBB2A

Cytogenetic location: 6p25.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:3,153,666-3,157,544 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 86 orthologues, 23 paralogues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Broad expression in brain (RPKM 301.1), bone marrow (RPKM 37.9) and 16 other tissues.

Summary

Microtubules, key participants in processes such as mitosis and intracellular transport, are composed of heterodimers of alpha- and beta-tubulins. The protein encoded by this gene is a beta-tubulin. Defects in this gene are associated with complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations-5. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.
