Automatically generated summary

See sections below for more information
The gene α-Tubulin at 84B is referred to in FlyBase by the symbol Dmel\αTub84B (CG1913, FBgn0003884). It is a protein_coding_gene from Drosophila melanogaster. Based on sequence similarity, it is predicted to have molecular function: structural constituent of cytoskeleton. There is experimental evidence that it is involved in the biological process: mitotic cell cycle spindle assembly checkpoint; cellular process; mitotic spindle organization; antimicrobial humoral response. 39 alleles are reported. The phenotypes of these alleles are annotated with: spermatid; mesothoracic tergum. It has one annotated transcript and one annotated polypeptide. Protein features are: Alpha tubulin; Tubulin; Tubulin, C-terminal; Tubulin, conserved site; Tubulin/FtsZ, 2-layer sandwich domain; Tubulin/FtsZ, C-terminal; Tubulin/FtsZ, GTPase domain. Summary of modENCODE Temporal Expression Profile: Temporal profile ranges from a peak of extremely high expression to a trough of very high expression. Peak expression observed within 00-18 hour embryonic stages, at stages throughout the larval period, at stages throughout the pupal period. Summary of FlyAtlas Anatomical Expression Data: High levels of expression observed in all larval and adult organs/tissues. Expression at high levels in the following post-embryonic organs or tissues: adult head, adult eye, larval/adult central nervous system, adult crop, larval/adult midgut, larval/adult hindgut, larval/adult Malpighian tubules, adult heart, larval/adult fat body, larval/adult salivary gland, larval trachea, adult female reproductive system, adult male reproductive system, larval/adult carcass. Comments on Affy2 ProbeSet: ProbeSet 1623580_at completely aligns to an exonic region of the only FlyBase-annotated transcript isoform of alphaTub84B. Gene sequence location is 3R:2912260..2914582.

hide Phenotypic Description from the Red Book (Lindsley & Zimm 1992)
Gene/Allele symbols may differ from current usage
αTub84B (α1t)
A structural gene for α-Tubulin; present in one copy per haploid genome; transcribed into mRNA in the oocyte and the embryo, reaching a maximum concentration 6-9 hr after the egg is laid (Kalfayan and Wensink, 1982). A variety of post-translational modifications of αTub84b protein found in all tissues, some of which are tissue-specific (Matthews et al., 1989). The gene appears to be constitutively expressed, its functions being common to most cells; the resulting tubulins are very similar to those of other animal species (Theurkauf et al., 1986). Mutations in αTub84B have been induced as lethals over Df(3R)Scx2. Alleles αTub84B1 and αTub84B3 produce proteins that are electrophoretic variants of the wild-type tubulin. Based on the extent of lethality and sterility found in interallelic heterozygotes and in heterozygotes over wild type, the severity of αTub84B alleles can be ordered as follows: αTub84B6 < αTub84B1 < αTub84B2 < αTub84B4 < αTub84B5 = αTub84B3 (Matthews and Kaufman, 1987). Maternal-effect as well as zygotic lethality is shown by the more severe alleles. In the less severe hypomorphic alleles, heterozygotes die late in pupal life or early in adult life, the adults showing head, thoracic, or abdominal defects, bristle abnormalities, leg tremors, and sterility (Matthews and Kaufman, 1987).

Additional Descriptive Data
To compare synthesis and accumulation of α-tubulin proteins, 35S</up>methionine radiolabeled tissues were subjected to Western analysis using monoclonal anti-α-tubulin antibody. The predominant α-tubulin protein in all tissues and stages examined is αTub84B protein. The protein did not accumulate in the adult head.

RNAi screen using dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene in S2 cell results in dim staining of microtubules, and a short monopolar spindle. This phenotype can be observed when the screen is performed with or without Cdc27 dsRNA.
RNAi screen using dsRNA made from templates generated with primers directed against this gene causes a greater than three-fold increase in AttA activity in response to heat-killed E.coli after ecdysone treatment in S2 cells.
RNAi generated by PCR using primers directed to this gene causes a cell growth and viability phenotype when assayed in Kc167 and S2R+ cells.

In a sample of 79 genes with multiple introns, 33 showed significant heterogeneity in G+C content among introns of the same gene and significant positive correspondence between the intron and the third codon position G+C content within genes. These results are consistent with selection adding against preferred codons at the start of genes.
Though αTub84B and αTub85E are very similar in sequence they are functionally distinct. αTub85E can provide function in the male germ line of generic microtubule arrays but lacks a subset of the functional properties possessed by specific features of microtubule assembly unique to the male germ cells.
αTub84B staining is used to analyse microtubule configuration during the first division of the zygote to investigate the organisation of the first cleavage spindle and the origin of the functional centrosome.
Mixtures of ncd or Khc motor domain treated with the zero-length cross linker EDC generates covalently cross linked products of ncd or Khc with βTub56D and αTub84B. These results indicate that kinesin family motors of opposite polarity interact with both βTub56D and αTub84B and support a model in which some portion of each ncd or Khc proteins motor domain overlaps adjacent βTub56D and αTub84B subunits.
Two upstream regions, tubulin element 1 (TE1) and tubulin element 2 (TE2), and an intron activate expression of αTub84B. These regions act ubiquitously to insulate from position effects and to activate transcription.
Investigation of the proteins that bind the regulatory sequences of αTub84B. DNaseI footprinting assays demonstrate Trl binds to tubulin element 2 (TE2) and the intron of αTub84B, but not to tubulin element 1 (TE1) and Tbf1 binds to tubulin element 1 (TE1) and tubulin element 2 (TE2) of αTub84B.
Both meiosis and cleavage stage mitoses are severely affected by mutations that result in a substantial decrease in the αTub67C/αTub84B+αTub84D ratio, though an increase has little effect on meiosis while still disrupting mitotic spindle formation.
Total α-tubulin levels remain high throughout embryogenesis. Constitutive isotypes are more stable than maternal isotypes in most tissues.
Apical localization of pair-rule transcripts restricts lateral protein diffusion allowing pair-rule proteins to define sharp boundaries and precise spatial domains.
An allele of αTub84B has been identified due to second site non-complementation of alleles (including a null allele) of βTub85D, though a deletion for αTub84B complements βTub85Dn. The genetic interaction between βTub85D and αTub84B is based on the structural interaction between the protein products of each gene.
The expression of βTub60D is accompanied by a coordinate transient increase in the level of synthesis of the embryonic α-tubulins, thereby maintaining an approximately equimolar synthesis of α- and β-tubulins throughout embryogenesis.
In D.melanogaster, two multigene families, each made up of four members, code for α- and β-tubulins. Tubulins are a highly conserved family of proteins that are the main structural components of microtubules in mitotic and meiotic spindles, cilia, flagella, neural processes and the cytoskeleton; nontubulin proteins (MAPS or microtubule-associated proteins) are involved along with tubulins in the formation of specialized microtubules (FBrf0045282; FBrf0046966). Transcribed in the oocyte and the embryo, reaching a maximum level 6-9 hr after the egg is laid (FBrf0037623). A variety of post-translational modifications of αTub84B protein found in all tissues, some of which are tissue-specific (FBrf0049502). The gene appears to be constitutively expressed, its functions being common to most cells. Maternal-effect as well as zygotic lethality is shown by the more severe alleles. In the less severe hypomorphic alleles, heterozygotes die late in pupal life or early in adult life, the adults showing head, thoracic, or abdominal defects, bristle abnormalities, leg tremors and sterility (FBrf0046004). Both meiosis and cleavage stage mitoses are severely affected by mutations that result in a substantial decrease in the αTub67C/αTub84B+αTub84D ratio, though an increase has little effect on meiosis while still disrupting mitotic spindle formation (FBrf0058107). Missense mutations may be male sterile when doubly heterozygous with missense allele of βTub85D (FBrf0050548).
