    Summary
    Predicted to enable several functions, including importin-alpha family protein binding activity; microtubule binding activity; and protein kinase activator activity. Predicted to be involved in activation of protein kinase activity; microtubule cytoskeleton organization; and regulation of microtubule cytoskeleton organization. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including axon hillock; intercellular bridge; and spindle. Predicted to be active in mitotic spindle and nuclear microtubule. Predicted to colocalize with spindle pole. Orthologous to human TPX2 (TPX2 microtubule nucleation factor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
