Tubulin alpha chain
Cross-source identity
Keep the review anchor, source IDs, and context contract aligned before reusing this target elsewhere.
This review treats Tubulin alpha chain as ChEMBL target CHEMBL3658, mapped to UniProt P02550. Disease framing currently uses the Open Targets-ready proxy contract.
Reuse the same identifiers in notes, watch rules, exports, and review packs so provenance stays stable across surfaces.
