tubulin polyglutamylase TTLL13 (tubulin-tyrosine ligase-like protein 13, TTLL13)

Function

• polyglutamylase which preferentially modifies alpha-tubulin
• involved in the side-chain elongation step of the polyglutamylation reaction rather than in the initiation step

Structure

• belongs to the tubulin-tyrosine ligase family
• contains 1 TTL domain

Alternative splicing

named isoforms=2

More general terms
