Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable protein folding chaperone; ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity; and unfolded protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within binding activity of sperm to zona pellucida. Located in several cellular components, including acrosomal vesicle; cell body; and pericentriolar material. Part of chaperonin-containing T-complex; heterochromatin; and zona pellucida receptor complex. Is expressed in several structures, including cerebral cortex; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; humerus; and immune system. Orthologous to human TCP1 (t-complex 1).
