function:Tubulin-folding protein; involved in the first step of the tubulin folding pathway. Modulates microtubule dynamics by capturing GTP-bound beta-tubulin (TUBB).,induction:Down-regulated by shear stress.,similarity:Belongs to the TBCD family.,similarity:Contains 3 HEAT repeats.,subunit:Supercomplex made of cofactors A to E. Cofactors A and D function by capturing and stabilizing tubulin in a quasi-native conformation. Cofactor E binds to the cofactor D-tubulin complex; interaction with cofactor C then causes the release of tubulin polypeptides that are committed to the native state.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitously expressed.,
Cell junction, tight junction . Lateral cell membrane . Cytoplasm . Cell junction, adherens junction . Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome . Localized in cell-cell contacts. .
Ubiquitously expressed.
