Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables metallocarboxypeptidase activity and tubulin binding activity. Involved in mitochondrion organization; nervous system development; and neuromuscular process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including adult walking behavior; axonal transport of mitochondrion; and central nervous system development. Located in cytosol; mitochondrion; and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early embryo; genitourinary system; liver; and retina. Used to study retinitis pigmentosa. Orthologous to human AGTPBP1 (ATP/GTP binding carboxypeptidase 1).
