Facts about Centromere protein J.
Involved in the regulation of slow processive growth of centriolar microtubules. Acts as microtubule plus-end monitoring protein that stabilizes centriolar microtubules and inhibits microtubule polymerization and expansion from the distal ends of centrioles (PubMed:15047868, PubMed:27219064, PubMed:27306797).

Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome, centriole. Localized within the center of microtubule asters (PubMed:11003675). During centriole biogenesis, it is concentrated within the proximal lumen of both parental centrioles and procentrioles (PubMed:17681131).
