 This protein contains a domain similar to the microtubule-binding domains of neuronal microtubule-associated protein (MAP2) and microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT/TAU).This protein promotes microtubule assembly, and has been shown to counteract destabilization of interphase microtubule catastrophe promotion.Cyclin B was found to interact with this protein, which targets cell division cycle 2 (CDC2) kinase to microtubules.
