SAXO1

SAXO1 (Stabilizer Of Axonemal Microtubules 1) is a Protein Coding gene. Gene Ontology (GO) annotations related to this gene include microtubule binding. An important paralog of this gene is SAXO2.

Stabilizer Of Axonemal Microtubules 1

May play a role in the regulation of cilium length. Stabilizes microtubules at low temperature.

In multi-ciliated cells, localizes to the basal bodies and in non-ciliated cells, to the centrosome. In spermatozoa, colocalizes with microtubules along the length of the axoneme from its proximal end to its distal tip and with tubulin at the distal end of the flagellum and at the proximal centriole.
