这个基因编码β-微管蛋白家族的一个成员β-微管蛋白是两个核心蛋白家族（α-微管蛋白和β-微管蛋白）中的一个，它们异源二聚并聚集形成微管。该基因突变可导致髓鞘减少性白质营养不良-6和常染色体显性扭转肌张力障碍-4交替剪接导致编码不同亚型的多个转录变体。在X染色体上发现了该基因的假基因。[由RefSeq提供，2014年1月]
This gene encodes a member of the beta tubulin family. Beta tubulins are one of two core protein families (alpha and beta tubulins) that heterodimerize and assemble to form microtubules. Mutations in this gene cause hypomyelinating leukodystrophy-6 and autosomal dominant torsion dystonia-4. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome X. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]
