Function

TonEBP controlled the expression and activity of aurora ki se A, TonEBP overexpression inhibited the loss of CP110 from the mother centrioles during the early stages of primary cilia assembly, and TonEBP regulated the localization of PCM1 and AZI1 (38961488).

Model organism evidence

Danio rerio (1 reference)

Here we provide in vivo evidence that melanoma cell adhesion molecule (MCAM) coordinates AB polarity-driven lumenogenesis and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)/PCP-dependent ciliogenesis.
