Abstract excerpt
The human beta-tubulin supergene family consists of several isotypes with many associated pseudogenes. Here we report the identification of yet another beta-tubulin sequence designated TUBB4Q. This tubulin maps 80 kb proximal to the facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD1) associated D4Z4 repeats on chromosome 4q35. The genomic structure contains four exons encoding a putative protein of 434 amino acids....
