Abstract excerpt
beta-Tubulins are encoded by members of multigene families and are generally highly conserved at the sequence level. The carboxyl terminal 15 amino acids are markedly more diverged than the rest of the sequence and constitute an "isotype defining region," which is conserved in corresponding beta-...
