Facts about Microtubule-associated protein 1B.
Possibly MAP1B binds to at least two tubulin subunits from the polymer, and this bridging of subunits may be involved in nucleating microtubule polymerization and in stabilizing microtubules. Acts as a positive cofactor in DAPK1-mediated autophagic vesicle formation and membrane blebbing.
