A tubulin alpha 8 mouse knockout model indicates a likely role in spermatogenesis but not in brain development.

A tubulin alpha 8 mouse knockout model indicates a likely role in spermatogenesis but not in brain development.

Tubulin alpha 8 (Tuba8) is the most divergent member of the highly conserved alpha tubulin family, and uniquely lacks two key post-translational modification sites. It is abundantly expressed in testis and muscle, with lower levels in the brain. We previously identified homozygous hypomorphic TUBA8...
