basic FUNCTION
| playing a role in cytokinesis, cell shape, and specialized functions such as secretion and capping |
|
mediating the nuclear translocation and mitogenic activity of FGF2 |
|
potentially playing a role in the postmeiotic phase of germ cell differentiation |
|
role in attaching spindle microtubules to both kinetochores and centrosomes, suggesting similar mechanisms may be used for generating these two distinct linkages in mitosis |
|
pivotal role in the unconventional secretion versus nuclear translocation of FGF2 |
|
as a spindle microtubule-binding protein, Cep57 is also responsible for the proper organization of the spindle microtubule and localization of spindle pole focusing proteins |
