Function |
May be involved in the negative control of osteogenic differentiation of osteochondrogenic precursor cells in peripheral zones of fetal cartilage and at the cartilage-bone interface. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18156182}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Isoform 4: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000305}. Note=Colocalizes with aggresomes, which are aggregates of misfolded proteins, at the centrosome.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Predominantly expressed in resting chondrocytes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18156182}.
