Function Specifically acetylates 'Lys-40' in alpha-tubulin on the lumenal side of microtubules. Promotes directional cell locomotion and chemotaxis, through AP2A2-dependent acetylation of alpha- tubulin at clathrin-coated pits that are concentrated at the leading edge of migrating cells. May facilitate primary cilium assembly. Required for normal sperm flagellar function. Promotes microtubule destabilization and accelerates microtubule dynamics; this activity may be independent of acetylation activity (PubMed:23275437). {ECO:0000269PubMed:20829795, ECO:0000269PubMed:23275437, ECO:0000269PubMed:23720746, ECO:0000269PubMed:23748901, ECO:0000269PubMed:24097348}.

Membrane, clathrin-coated pit {ECO:0000255HAMAP-Rule:MF_03130}. Cell junction, focal adhesion {ECO:0000255HAMAP-Rule:MF_03130}. Note=In primary root dorsal ganglion neurons, localizes with acetylated tubulin in axons. Recruited to the mitotic spindle during cell division.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Widely expressed with highest levels in neuronal tissues. In the brain, expressed in the cortex, cerebellum and hippocampus, including the pyramidal layers in CA1 and CA3, as well as the granular cell layers in the lateral blade (suprapyramidal portion) and the medial blade (infrapyramidal portion) of the dentate gyrus. In testis, mainly expressed in the internal cell layers of seminiferous tubules, where spermatocytes and spermatids are located. {ECO:0000269PubMed:23275437, ECO:0000269PubMed:23720746}.
