This protein localizes to the centriolar sub-distal appendages that are associated with the older of the two centrioles after centrosome duplication. This protein plays a central role in organization of the microtubules during centriole duplication. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 5.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009] Expression Broad expression in testis (RPKM 21.9), endometrium (RPKM 10.2) and 25 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
