== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: N/A
* **UniProt Summary**: Involved in maintenance of centrosome cohesion, probably as part of a linker structure which prevents centrosome splitting (PubMed:18042621). Required for localization of CDK5RAP2 to the centrosome during interphase (PubMed:24554434, PubMed:25503564). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18042621, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24554434, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25503564}.
