Function |
Regulates microtubule dynamics in Sertoli cells, a process that is essential for spermiogenesis and male fertility. Severs microtubules in an ATP-dependent manner, promoting rapid reorganization of cellular microtubule arrays (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_03024, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22654668}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in testis, restricted to Sertoli cells (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22654668}.
