Facts about Centrosomal protein of 152 kDa.
Proposed to snatch PLK4 from PLK4:CEP92 complexes in early G1 daughter centriole and to reposition PLK4 in the outer boundary of a newly forming CEP152 ring structure (PubMed:24997597). Also plays an integral role in deuterosome-mediated centriole amplification in multiciliated that could generate over 100 centrioles (By similarity).

Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome, centriole. Colocalizes with CDK5RAP2, WDR62 and CEP63 in a discrete ring around the proximal end of the parental centriole. At this site, a cohesive structure is predicted to engage parental centrioles and procentrioles (PubMed:21983783, PubMed:26297806). Localizes to the deuterosome (By similarity). Localizes to pericentriolar material (PCM) (PubMed:26337392).
