Summary: Enables alpha-tubulin binding activity; beta-tubulin binding activity; and kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including mitotic G2 DNA damage checkpoint signaling; negative regulation of microtubule depolymerization; and positive regulation of JNK cascade. Located in microtubule cytoskeleton and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
