MYCGR3G102950 — Zymoseptoria tritici

Summary

MYCGR3G102950 (TUB1) on Zymoseptoria tritici chromosome 1 encodes a protein that is a structural constituent of the cytoskeleton with GTPase activity, GTP binding, and metal binding. The gene is associated with microtubule-based processes, including microtubule cytoskeleton organization, spindle assembly, spindle elongation, chromosome separation, nuclear division, mitotic prophase, anaphase, and the spindle assembly checkpoint. It is also linked to microtubule dynamics, microtubule shortening, nuclear movement, and response to antibiotic. The product localizes to the microtubule and cytoplasm. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to reduced virulence and unaffected pathogenicity, as well as to resistance to chemical compounds.
