Function
Component of the cytosolic iron-sulfur (Fe/S) protein assembly (CIA) machinery (PubMed:18573874).
Required for maturation of extramitochondrial Fe-S proteins (PubMed:18573874).
The NUBP1-NUBP2 heterotetramer forms a Fe-S scaffold complex, mediating the de novo assembly of an Fe-S cluster and its transfer to target apoproteins (PubMed:18573874).
Implicated in the regulation of centrosome duplication (By similarity).
Negatively regulates cilium formation and structure (By similarity).

Enriched in centrioles of microtubule asters during prophase, prometaphase and telophase stages of mitosis. Localized at centrioles and in the nucleus at interphase. Colocalizes with nubp-2 at prometaphase. Specifically localizes to the axenome of motile cilia as opposed to primary non-motile cilia. Localization is independent of NUBP2 and KIFC1.
