DESCRIPTION

Also known as TBG1_HUMAN, TUBG1, TUBG. Tubulin is the major constituent of microtubules. The gamma chain is found at microtubule organizing centers (MTOC) such as the spindle poles or the centrosome. Pericentriolar matrix component that regulates alpha/beta chain minus-end nucleation, centrosome duplication and spindle formation. Interacts with TUBGCP2 and TUBGCP3 (PubMed:9566969, PubMed:9566969). Interacts with B9D2 (By similarity). Interacts with CDK5RAP2; the interaction is leading to centrosomal localization of TUBG1 and CDK5RAP2 (PubMed:17959831). Interacts with PIFO (PubMed:20643351). Interacts with SAS6 and NUP62 at the centrosome (PubMed:24107630). Interacts with EML3 (phosphorylated at 'Thr-881') and HAUS8 (PubMed:30723163).
