{"symbol":"TUBE1","synonyms":["DJ142L7.2","TUBE"],"name":"tubulin, epsilon 1","description":"This gene encodes a member of the tubulin superfamily. This protein localizes to the centriolar sub-distal appendages that are associated with the older of the two centrioles after centrosome duplication. This protein plays a central role in organization of the microtubules during centriole duplication. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 5.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":51175,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/51175","proteins":[{"symbol":"TBE_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/TBE_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[{"name":"Tubulins (TUB)","href":"/api/1.0/gene_family/Tubulins+%28TUB%29"}]}
