Recognizes the two major beta tubulin isotypes and one of the minor beta-tubulin isotypes of the free-living soil nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. It also binds to Sarkosyl-resistant ribbons from Strongylocentrotus purpuratus (sea urchin) sperm axonemes, to neuronal axons of the larva of Ciona intestinalis (ascidian), and to tubulin of chicken and mammals (e.g., cultured human fibroblasts, bovine, and rat brain tissue). In C. elegans preparations, the antibody does not recognize tubulin that has been heat denatured in the presence of SDS and beta-mercaptoethanol, though it is bound to tubulin separated on isoelectric focusing gels, and found reactive with heat-denatured and reduced mammalian preparations in immunoblotting.
