Negatively regulates post-translational modifications of tubulin, including detyrosination of the C-terminus and polyglutamylation of glutamate residues . Also, indirectly promotes histone H4 trimethylation at 'Lys-20' (H4K20me3) . Probably by controlling tubulin and/or histone H4 post-translational modifications, plays a role in mitosis and in maintaining chromosome number stability . During RNA virus-mediated infection, acts as a negative regulator of the DDX58/RIG-I pathway by preventing MAVS binding to TBK1 and IKBKE .
Cytoplasm . Midbody . Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome . Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle . Nucleus . Predominantly localizes in the cytoplasm (PubMed:28011935). Partially colocalizes with vimentin in prostate cancer cells (PubMed:20162578). .
Expressed in the basal layer of prostate and endothelial cells. Increased expression in prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia and metastatic lesions.
