About Tppp

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including GTPase activity; magnesium ion binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in microtubule polymerization; nervous system development; and positive regulation of myelination. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Colocalizes with microtubule. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; genitourinary system; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; and nasal cavity epithelium. Orthologous to human TPPP (tubulin polymerization promoting protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
