Anti-CEP131

Component of centriolar satellites contributing to the building of a complex and dynamic network required to regulate cilia/flagellum formation. In proliferating cells, MIB1-mediated ubiquitination induces its sequestration within centriolar satellites, precluding untimely cilia formation initiation. In contrast, during normal and ultraviolet or heat shock cellular stress-induced ciliogenesis, its non-ubiquitinated form is rapidly displaced from centriolar satellites and recruited to centrosome/basal bodies in a microtubule- and p38 MAPK-dependent manner. Acts also as a negative regulator of BBSome ciliary trafficking. Plays a role in sperm flagellar formation, may be involved in the regulation of intraflagellar transport (IFT and/or intramanchette (IMT trafficking, which are important for axoneme extension and/or cargo delivery to the nascent sperm tail (By similarity. Required for optimal cell proliferation and cell cycle progression, may play a role in the regulation of genome stability in non-ciliogenic cells. Involved in centriole duplication (By similarity. Required for CEP152, WDR62 and CEP63 centrosomal localization and promotes the centrosomal localization of CDK2. Essential for maintaining proper centriolar satellite integrity.
