Summary: A structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Involved in regulation of synapse organization. Acts upstream of or within spindle assembly. Located in microtubule and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; branchial arch; central nervous system; genitourinary system; and retina. Used to study microcephaly. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations 6 and congenital symmetric circumferential skin creases 1. Orthologous to human TUBB (tubulin beta class I). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

Effects of Venlafaxine on the Size of Brain and Expression of SHANK3, TUBB5 and DDC Genes in BALB/c Mice.
Title: Effects of Venlafaxine on the Size of Brain and Expression of SHANK3, TUBB5 and DDC Genes in BALB/c Mice.
Study shows that homozygous TUBB5 knockin animals exhibit a severe reduction in brain size and in body weight. These animals do not show any significant impairment in general activity, anxiety, or in the acoustic startle response, however, present with notable defects in motor coordination.
Title: Brain-specific knockin of the pathogenic Tubb5 E401K allele causes defects in motor coordination and prepulse inhibition.
This work sheds light on the functional repertoire of Tubb5, reveals that the E401K mutation acts by a complex mechanism, and demonstrates that the cellular pathology driving TUBB5-associated microcephaly is cell death.

TUBB5 is essential for neuronal differentiation and dendritic spine formation in vivo, providing insight into the underlying cellular pathology associated with TUBB5 disease states.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
