Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable GTPase activator activity and beta-tubulin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cell-cell junction assembly; post-chaperonin tubulin folding pathway; and tubulin complex assembly. Predicted to be located in centrosome. Predicted to be active in lateral plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in early onset progressive encephalopathy with brain atrophy and thin corpus callosum. Orthologous to human TBCD (tubulin folding cofactor D).
