+== Function ==
+[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/TBA1B_PIG 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.

+== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
+Microtubules form from longitudinally and laterally assembling tubulin alpha-beta dimers. The assembly induces strain in tubulin, resulting in cycles of microtubule catastrophe and regrowth. This 'dynamic instability' is governed by GTP hydrolysis that renders the microtubule lattice unstable, but it is unclear how. We used a human microtubule nucleating and stabilizing neuronal protein, doublecortin, and high-resolution cryo-EM to capture tubulin's elusive hydrolysis intermediate GDP*Pi state, alongside the prehydrolysis analog GMPCPP state and the posthydrolysis GDP state with and without an anticancer drug, Taxol. GTP hydrolysis to GDP*Pi followed by Pi release constitutes two distinct structural transitions, causing unevenly distributed compressions of tubulin dimers, thereby tightening longitudinal and loosening lateral interdimer contacts. We conclude that microtubule catastrophe is triggered because the lateral contacts can no longer counteract the strain energy stored in the lattice, while reinforcement of the longitudinal contacts may support generation of force.
