Centromere protein J is a

NF-kappaB-mediated transcription, likely via its interaction with the coactivator p300/CREB-binding protein
.

The Drosophila ortholog, sas-4, has been shown to be a scaffold for a cytoplasmic complex of Cnn, Asl, CP-190, tubulin and D-PLP (similar to the human proteins PCNT and AKAP9). These complexes are then anchored at the centriole to begin formation of the centrosome.[7]

Clinical significance

Mutations in CENPJ are associated with Seckel syndrome type 4 and primary autosomal recessive microcephaly, a disorder characterized by severely reduced brain size and intellectual disability.[6][8][9] Interestingly, CENPJ interacts with other microcephaly aossciated proteins such as WDR62 and both coordinate a regulatory function neocortical development and brain growth. [10]

Interactions

CENPJ has been shown to

EPB41.[5]
