|
| 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 Location |
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}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitous; expressed in most tissues with the exception of thymus and peripheral blood lymphocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10521658}.
