Putative methyltransferase C9orf114 (SPOUT1)

Required for association of the centrosomes with the poles of the bipolar mitotic spindle during metaphase (PubMed:20813266, PubMed:25657325). Also involved in chromosome alignment (PubMed:20813266).

May promote centrosome maturation likely by recruiting A-kinase anchor protein AKAP9 to centrosomes in early mitosis (PubMed:25657325). Binds specifically to miRNA MIR145 hairpin, regulates MIR145 expression at a postranscriptional degree (PubMed:28431233).
