Tubulin--tyrosine ligase-like protein 6
Uniprot Function Description
Polyglutamylase which modifies both tubulin and non-tubulin proteins, generating alpha-linked polyglutamate side chains on the gamma-carboxyl group of specific glutamate residues of target proteins. Preferentially mediates ATP-dependent long polyglutamate chain elongation over the initiation step of the polyglutamylation reaction. Preferentially modifies the alpha-tubulin tail over a beta-tail. Promotes tubulin polyglutamylation which stimulates spastin/SPAST-mediated microtubule severing, thereby regulating microtubule functions. Mediates microtubule polyglutamylation in primary cilia axoneme, which is important for ciliary structural formation and motility. Mediates microtubule polyglutamylation in motile cilia, necessary for the regulation of ciliary coordinated beating. Polyglutamylates non-tubulin protein nucleotidyltransferase CGAS, leading to CGAS DNA-binding inhibition, thereby preventing antiviral defense response.
Sample type
Recommended sample types are human plasma and serum. For other sample types e.g cerebrospinal fluid, (CSF), tissue or cell lysate, please contact support@olink.com for more information. Please note that protein expression levels are expected to vary in different sample types and certain assays may be affected by interfering substances such as hemolysate.
Precision
Precision (repeatability) is calculated from linearized NPX values over LOD.
Analytical measuring range
The technical data reported below refers to the measured value in the in vitro validation assays run using known concentrations of recombinant antigen.
Dilution factor
For optimal assay readout, Olink assays are run using different dilutions of the original samples e.g. undiluted, 1:10, or higher. The dilution factor for this assay is noted below and should be taken into account when estimating the appropriate addressable biological concentration of the protein based on the in vitro validation data.
