    text
  • localizes to chromosome arms and chromosome-proximal microtubules during mitosis and to the nucleus, with enrichment in the nucleoli, during interphase (
  • basic FUNCTION
  • a crucial role in spindle microtubule organization
  • its degradation is important to exit from mitosis
  • microtubule-associated protein that plays an important role in spindle assembly
  • role in connecting apoptosis with cell migration, but also is potentially involved in morphogenesis in vertebrates
  • microtubule-stabilizing protein that localizes to chromosome arms and chromosome-proximal microtubules during mitosis and to the nucleus, with enrichment in the nucleoli, during interphase
  • role in gene expression or DNA damage response
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell cycle, division, mitosis
