gamma tubulin (protein family or complex)

General Information (Source: NCBI Gene,UniProt)

Text mining Term gamma tubulin (protein family or complex)
UniProt ID TBG_SCHPO
Name Gamma-tubulin
Tubulin gamma chain
Gene Names tug1
Synonyms:gtb1
Taxonomy Schizosaccharomyces pombe 972h-

General annotation

Function Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. Gamma tubulin is found at microtubule organizing centers (MTOC) such as the spindle poles or the centrosome, suggesting that it is involved in the minus-end nucleation of microtubule assembly.
Subcellular location Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle pole body (Probable).
