Anti-tubulin delta 1 antibodies are used for the immunodetection of the protein encoded by the TUBD1 gene. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 453 amino acid residues and a mass of 51 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the nucleus and cytoplasm. Alternative splicing is reported to yield 6 different isoforms for this protein. A member of the Tubulin protein family, it is known to act as a positive regulator of hedgehog signaling and regulates ciliary function. Other names for this target antigen include tubulin delta chain, delta-tubulin, and TUBD. Gene orthologs have been identified in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. A number of tubulin delta 1 antibodies have been mentioned in research publications and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. Immunofluorescence and Immunohistochemistry are also common applications.
