Microtubule-associated protein 4 is a major non-neuronal microtubule-associated protein.
This protein contains a domain similar to the microtubule-binding domains of neuronal microtubule-associated protein (MAP2) and microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT/TAU).
This protein promotes microtubule assembly, and has been shown to counteract destabilization of interphase microtubule catastrophe promotion.
Cyclin B was found to interact with this protein, which targets cell division cycle 2 (CDC2) kinase to microtubules
The phosphorylation of this protein affects microtubule properties and cell cycle progression.
Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been observed, the full-length nature of three of which are supported.
