About TUBGCP4

Cytogenetic location: 15q15.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 15:43,371,101-43,409,771 (from NCBI)

This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 205 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 7.5), thyroid (RPKM 5.7) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a component of the gamma-tubulin ring complex, which is required for microtubule nucleation. In mammalian cells, the protein localizes to centrosomes in association with gamma-tubulin. Crystal structure analysis revealed a structure composed of five helical bundles arranged around conserved hydrophobic cores. An exposed surface area located in the C-terminal domain is essential and sufficient for direct binding to gamma-tubulin. Mutations in this gene that alter microtubule organization are associated with microcephaly and chorioretinopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
