Facts about Transforming acidic coiled-coil-containing protein 3.
Acts as component of this TACC3/ch-TOG/clathrin complex proposed to contribute to stabilization of kinetochore fibers of the mitotic spindle by acting as inter-microtubule bridge. The TACC3/ch-TOG/clathrin complex is necessary for the maintenance of kinetochore fiber tension (PubMed:21297582, PubMed:23532825).
