UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: A4Q9E8 (A4Q9E8)
Gene Name:
Ttll6
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse)
Function: Polyglutamylase which modifies both tubulin and non-tubulin proteins, generating alpha-linked polyglutamate side chains on the gamma-carboxyl group of specific glutamate residues of target proteins (PubMed:17499049, PubMed:20530212, PubMed:21074048, PubMed:26829768, PubMed:32747782). Preferentially mediates ATP-dependent long polyglutamate chain elongation over the initiation step of the polyglutamylation reaction (PubMed:17499049, PubMed:20530212, PubMed:21074048, PubMed:26829768, PubMed:32747782). Preferentially modifies the alpha-tubulin tail over a beta-tail (PubMed:17499049, PubMed:20530212, PubMed:21074048, PubMed:32747782). Promotes tubulin polyglutamylation which stimulates spastin/SPAST-mediated microtubule severing, thereby regulating microtubule functions (PubMed:20530212). Mediates microtubule polyglutamylation in primary cilia axoneme which is important for ciliary structural formation and motility (PubMed:22246503). Mediates microtubule polyglutamylation in motile cilia, necessary for the regulation of ciliary coordinated beating (PubMed:23897886). Polyglutamylates non-tubulin protein nucleotidyltransferase CGAS, leading to CGAS DNA-binding inhibition, thereby preventing antiviral defense response (PubMed:26829768)
