tubulin chaperone complex

Function

• folding of tubulin
• TBCA & TBCD function by capturing & stabilizing tubulin in a quasi-native conformation
• TBCE binds to TBCD-tubulin complex
• interaction with TBCC then causes release of tubulin polypeptides committed to the native state

Structure

• consists of: TBCA, TBCB, TBCC, TBCD, TBCE

More general terms

• molecular complex
