GTPase activitymolecular functionCatalysis of the reaction: GTP + H2O = GDP + H+ + phosphate. [PMID:26832457, PMID:27218782]
protein bindingmolecular functionBinding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators]
microtubule bindingmolecular functionBinding to a microtubule, a filament composed of tubulin monomers. [GOC:krc]
tubulin bindingmolecular functionBinding to monomeric or multimeric forms of tubulin, including microtubules. [GOC:clt]
protein homodimerization activitymolecular functionBinding to an identical protein to form a homodimer. [GOC:jl]

microtubule nucleator activitymolecular functionThe action of a molecule that provides a shape mimicking the end of a microtubule to seed the formation of a new microtubule via self-assembly. [PMID:20631709, PMID:21993292]

Located In

This protein is located in 8 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
nucleuscellular componentA membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent. [GOC:go_curators]
cytoplasmcellular componentThe contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. [ISBN:0198547684]
mitochondrioncellular componentA semiautonomous, self replicating organelle that occurs in varying numbers, shapes, and sizes in the cytoplasm of virtually all eukaryotic cells. It is notably the site of tissue respiration. [GOC:giardia, ISBN:0198506732]
microtubule organizing centercellular componentAn intracellular structure that can catalyze gamma-tubulin-dependent microtubule nucleation and that can anchor microtubules by interacting with their minus ends, plus ends or sides. [GOC:vw, ISBN:0815316194, PMID:17072892, PMID:17245416, Wikipedia:Microtubule_organizing_center]
cytosolcellular componentThe part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes. [GOC:hjd, GOC:jl]
perinuclear region of cytoplasmcellular componentCytoplasm situated near, or occurring around, the nucleus. [GOC:jid]
mitotic spindlecellular componentA spindle that forms as part of mitosis. Mitotic and meiotic spindles contain distinctive complements of proteins associated with microtubules. [GOC:mah, GOC:vw, PMID:11408572, PMID:18367542, PMID:8027178]
postsynaptic Golgi apparatuscellular componentThe network of the Golgi apparatus structures located within the postsynapse. [GOC:aruk, GOC:bc, PMID:23838184]

Active In

This protein is active in 1 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
Golgi apparatuscellular componentA membrane-bound cytoplasmic organelle of the endomembrane system that further processes the core oligosaccharides (e.g. N-glycans) added to proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum and packages them into membrane-bound vesicles. The Golgi apparatus operates at the intersection of the secretory, lysosomal, and endocytic pathways. [ISBN:0198506732]

Involved In

This protein is involved in 13 target(s):

TargetCategoryDefinition
microtubule bundle formationbiological processA process that results in a parallel arrangement of microtubules. [GOC:dph]
oligodendrocyte developmentbiological processThe process aimed at the progression of an oligodendrocyte over time, from initial commitment of the cell to a specific fate, to the fully functional differentiated cell. An oligodendrocyte is a type of glial cell involved in myelinating the axons in the central nervous system. [GOC:dgh, GOC:ef]
astral microtubule organizationbiological processA process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of astral microtubules, any of the spindle microtubules that radiate in all directions from the spindle poles. [GOC:mah]
positive regulation of protein-containing complex assemblybiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of protein complex assembly. [GOC:mah]
positive regulation of myelinationbiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the formation of a myelin sheath around nerve axons. [GOC:mah]
positive regulation of protein polymerizationbiological processAny process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the process of creating protein polymers. [GOC:mah]
myelin assemblybiological processThe process in which the wraps of cell membrane that constitute myelin are laid down around an axon in the central or peripheral nervous system. [GOC:dgh, GOC:dph, GOC:tb]
microtubule polymerizationbiological processThe addition of tubulin heterodimers to one or both ends of a microtubule. [GOC:ai, GOC:go_curators]
oligodendrocyte differentiationbiological processThe process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the specialized features of an oligodendrocyte. An oligodendrocyte is a type of glial cell involved in myelinating the axons of neurons in the central nervous system. [GOC:vp, PMID:15139015]
cell divisionbiological processThe process resulting in division and partitioning of components of a cell to form more cells; may or may not be accompanied by the physical separation of a cell into distinct, individually membrane-bounded daughter cells. [GOC:di, GOC:go_curators, GOC:pr]
microtubule nucleation by microtubule organizing centerbiological processThe 'de novo' formation of a microtubule, mediated by the microtubule organizing center. [GOC:ai]
regulation of microtubule cytoskeleton organizationbiological processAny process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the formation, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cytoskeletal structures comprising microtubules and their associated proteins. [GOC:mah]
negative regulation of tubulin deacetylationbiological processAny process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of tubulin deacetylation. [GO_REF:0000058, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:23886946]
