IUBMB Comments
The eukaryotic tubulin proteins, which polymerize into microtubules, are highly modified by the addition of side-chains. The polyglutamylation reaction catalysed by this group of enzymes consists of two biochemically distinct steps: initiation and elongation. Initiation comprises the formation of an isopeptide bond with the gamma-carboxyl group of the glutamate acceptor site in a glutamate-rich C-terminal region of tubulin, whereas elongation consists of the addition of glutamate residues linked by regular peptide bonds to the gamma-linked residue. This entry describes enzymes that act on both alpha- and beta-tubulins.
