1PtT2

1PtT2 is a protein encoded by the PTT2 gene in humans. It is a member of the tubulin family, which are essential components of microtubules. Microtubules are dynamic cytoskeletal polymers that play critical roles in cell division, intracellular transport, and cell shape maintenance. 1PtT2 is a specific isotype of tubulin, meaning it is one of several variations of tubulin proteins that exist within a cell. The precise function and localization of 1PtT2 are subjects of ongoing research, but it is understood to contribute to the overall structural integrity and functional diversity of the microtubule network. Variations in the PTT2 gene have been associated with certain developmental disorders, highlighting the importance of this protein in normal biological processes. Further investigation into the specific interactions and regulatory mechanisms involving 1PtT2 is necessary to fully elucidate its biological significance and potential therapeutic implications.
