Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Modulates the assembly and organization of the microtubule cytoskeleton, and probably plays a role in regulating the orientation of the mitotic spindle and the orientation of the plane of cell division. Required for normal proliferation of neuronal progenitor cells in the developing brain and for normal brain development. Does not affect neuron migration per se (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular Localization Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000250}. Note=Detected in cytoplasmic punctae. Co-localizes with microtubules. Enriched in perinuclear regions during interphase and in the region of spindle microtubules during metaphase. Enriched at the midzone during telophase and cytokinesis. Detected at growth cones in neurons (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Disease Associations Note=Mutations in this gene are associated with atypical heterotopia, epilepsy and mental retardation. Patients present giant bilateral periventricular and ribbon-like subcortical heterotopia with polymicrogyria and agenesis of the corpus callosum.
Tissue Specificity Ubiquitous; expressed in most tissues with the exception of thymus and peripheral blood lymphocytes. {ECO:0000269PubMed:10521658}.
