Abundant in testis, thymus, and in tumor derived cell lines, while barely detectable in liver, prostate, and kidney.
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle pole. Contrary to the ectopically expressed protein, endogenous CKAP2 does not colocalize with microtubules in G1, S and early G2. At late G2 and prophase after separation of duplicated centrosomes, colocalizes with gamma-tubulin and centrosome-proximal microtubules. From prometaphase through anaphase B, colocalizes with mitotic spindle poles and spindle microtubules. During cytokinesis, absent from midbody microtubules.
