TACC2 Plays a role in the microtubule-dependent coupling of the nucleus and the centrosome. Involved in the processes that regulate centrosome-mediated interkinetic nuclear migration (INM) of neural progenitors. May play a role in organizing centrosomal microtubules. May act as a tumor suppressor protein. May represent a tumor progression marker. Belongs to the TACC family. Strongly expressed in heart, skeletal muscle, brain, prostate, thyroid and trachea. 6 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
