    text
  • localized to the centrioles at the base of the connecting cilium
  • basic FUNCTION
  • play an important role in the polyglutamylation of primary cilia
  • key initiator of polyglutamylation in alpha-tubulin
  • essential for the correct function of sperm flagella
  • has no unique function for ciliary stability or beating in brain ependymal cilia
  • might be responsible for the tubulin polyglutamination in the microtubule triplets of the centrioles, increasing the centriole stability
  • physiological function in several settings is to modify cell growth rates in a manner that can be independent of steroid hormones
  • has polyglutamylation activity, augments the activity of p160 coactivators (NCOA1 and NCOA2) in glucocorticoid receptor-regulated gene induction and repression, and displays steroid-independent growth activity with several cell types
  • participate in a unique, tissue-selective TTLL-mediated pathway for alpha-tubulin polyglutamylation that is required for sperm maturation and motility and may be relevant for male fertility
