ABRAXAS2 Gene Summary [Human]
Enables microtubule binding activity and polyubiquitin modification-dependent protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including mitotic spindle assembly; protein K63-linked deubiquitination; and response to ischemia. Located in cytoplasm. Part of BRISC complex. Colocalizes with microtubule minus-end; midbody; and spindle pole centrosome. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human ABRAXAS2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
