Anti-alpha Tubulin antibodies are reagents for the detection of the α-tubulin (or tubulin alpha) protein in immunodetection applications, including Western blot, flow cytometry, IHC, and ELISA. Alpha tublin dimerizes with beta-tubulin to assemble microtubules, a major component of cellular cytoskeleton. The alpha tubulin family comprises several genes in humans, including TUBA1A, TUBA1B, TUBA1C, TUBA3C, TUBA3D, TUBA3E, TUBA4A,TUBA8. Alpha tubulin antibodies are useful in studies involving microtubules, such as cell division, axonal growth, neuronal regeneration, intracellular transport, and cytoskeletal dynamics. They are also frequently used as a protein loading control due to alpha tubulin's stable and ubiquitous expression across cells and tissues.
