Function

CEP135/Bld10 promotes the assembly and stability of the centriolar microtubule wall. Induces the formation of protofilament-based ring-like structures, binding directly to tubulin, protofilaments, and (27477386). Required for centriole conversion to centrosome (26595382). Plays an important role in the assembly of centriole/basal bodies and stabilisation of , maintaining basal body integrity (23810536, 23115304, 22898782). Knockdown of CEP135 leads to disorganised interphase and mitotic spindle (22521416)

To date, mutation in Cep135 has been reported to be closely associated with multiple morphological abnormalities of the flagella (MMAF) in h

CP110 is a tip protein controlling ciliogenesis, and CEP135 is a centriole-specific structural protein in the centriole base of canonical centrioles found in most cell types.
