Atomic model of a microtubule seam based on a cryo-EM reconstruction of the EB3-bound microtubule (merged dataset containing tubulin bound to GTPgammaS, GMPCPP, and GDP)
3jaw is a 4 chain structure with sequence from Sus scrofa. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
TBA1B_PIG Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. It binds two moles of GTP, one at an exchangeable site on the beta chain and one at a non-exchangeable site on the alpha chain.
