Protein
Microtubule-associated protein RP/EB family member 1B
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
Binds to the plus end of microtubules and regulates the dynamics of the microtubule cytoskeleton. May be involved in anchoring microtubules to their nucleation sites and/or functioning as a reservoir for distribution to the growing end. In plants, microtubule minus ends are not necessarily severed from the nucleation site and transported to the plus end of a microtubule as part of the recycling process. May play a role in endomembrane organization during polarized growth of plant cells.
Similarity
Belongs to the MAPRE family.
