UniProt Annotation
Function May play a role in the polymerization of tubulin into microtubules, microtubule bundling and the stabilization of existing microtubules, thus maintaining the integrity of the microtubule network. May play a role in mitotic spindle assembly and nuclear envelope breakdown. {ECO:0000269PubMed:18028908}.
Subcellular Localization Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269PubMed:18028908}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000269PubMed:18028908}. Nucleus {ECO:0000269PubMed:18028908}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Widely expressed with higher expression in brain (at protein level). {ECO:0000269PubMed:18028908}.
