ABSTRACT

A subcloned portion of the 5' nontranslated sequence from a Physarum alpha-tubulin cDNA is specific for a single alpha-tubulin locus, altB, of Physarum polycephalum. We find that this locus is expressed only in the plasmodium and encodes at least an alpha 1-tubulin isotype, which we have designated alpha 1B. Hybridization patterns of other subclones of this cDNA reveal two sequences for alpha-tubulin at the altB locus.
