Gene Description

CEP57 is a coiled-coil centrosomal protein that binds microtubules and helps organize pericentriolar material and the mitotic spindle. Its distinct interaction regions anchor centrosomal proteins, including pericentrin, and support the integrity of the centrosome and centriole engagement. Human CEP57 can self-associate; purified constructs form condensates that concentrate tubulin, while cellular perturbations disrupt microtubule organization. CEP57, also called translokin, binds the 18-kDa form of FGF2 and supports its intracellular trafficking toward the nuclear vicinity in mammalian cell models. The relative contribution of its proposed kinetochore checkpoint role varies across experimental systems. Biallelic CEP57 variants cause mosaic variegated aneuploidy syndrome (PMID:21552266).

Summary: Human translokin was recovered in an NS5A two-hybrid screen.
Reason: The authentic PMID:15607035 abstract explicitly identifies translokin among human liver-library positives against hepatitis C virus NS5A derivatives. The preserved P27958-PRO_0000037576 identifier is the annotated NS5A chain in the current UniProt viral polyprotein. The exact clone, viral strain and responsible NS5A truncation were not recovered from the full target table, and the abstract does not list translokin among the subsequent purified-protein confirmations. Retain the curated low-resolution association at the screen scope under the campaign binding instruction; do not infer an antiviral role or a demonstrated native human complex.

Summary: A mapped interaction with MYC supports transcription-factor binding.
Reason: Source-linked IntAct records for PMID:20195357 join exact human Q86XR8 and P01106. They retain sufficient-binding-region features for CEP57 residues 76–116 and MYC residues 370–454 in this interaction-region screen. MYC is a DNA-binding transcription factor, so GO:0140297 conveys the partner class. Fragment interaction is not evidence that full-length CEP57 regulates MYC transcription or has DNA-binding activity itself. Exact record identifiers, methods and features are retained in the source-evidence extract.

ACCEPT
Summary: Microtubule-associated CEP57 localization is consistent with its own binding activity.
Reason: PMID:12717444 reports tagged translokin localization overlapping the microtubule network; its Methods include mammalian constructs and the displayed localization is an expression assay. Later endogenous spindle imaging and purified human CEP57 C-terminal co-sedimentation provide independent support for this location and capability.

Summary: Spindle-microtubule activity agrees with direct mammalian structural evidence.
Reason: The PAINT PTN001456386 assertion is retained as ancestral inference; the current frog donor identity does not alone settle its node placement. Human endogenous spindle-associated CEP57, reduced spindle microtubule organization after depletion, and direct human MT-binding assays support activity at this site. The complete phylogenetic node history was not reconstructed. This is structural participation, not merely the location of a passive spindle substrate.

Summary: CEP57 contributes physical organization to the mitotic spindle.
Reason: Human depletion and rescue experiments connect CEP57 to spindle pole/central-spindle organization, while purified-protein and anchoring experiments establish its own structural capabilities. The source PAINT node PTN001456386 and PomBase SPAC4H3.11c provenance are preserved. The extant fission-yeast donor is not treated as a simple pairwise transfer, and the node history was not independently reconstructed. No kinase activity or generic requirement-only argument is used.

Summary: CEP57 anchors centrosomal partners to a microtubule-associated scaffold.
Reason: The inherited cytoskeletal-adaptor assertion is consistent with direct human CEP57–PCNT PACT-fragment binding, ectopic recruitment of the PCNT fragment to CEP57-decorated microtubules, and centrosomal PACT-loading/PCM organization assays in PMID:30804344. These assays identify actual anchoring work rather than just necessity.

MODIFY
Summary: The source supports intracellular FGF2 transport without resolving a strictly nuclear destination.
Reason: PMID:12717444 identifies FGF2-binding translokin and tests a binding-deficient FGF2 chimera. Both ligands enter the cytoplasm, whereas the chimera has reduced nuclear-associated accumulation and mitogenicity despite preserved receptor competition, ERK/p70S6K signaling and differentiation. Translokin RNAi and partial rescue by a ligand nuclear-localization signal support its own binding/transport role. GO:0006886 captures this intracellular movement without equating the predominantly perinuclear signal or nuclear-associated fraction with demonstrated intranuclear delivery. Human-library interaction discovery is distinct from mouse NIH3T3 knockdown and bovine endothelial transport assays; every purified construct species is not unambiguously identified in the Methods. No nuclear-pore motor is established. The tested receptor readouts do not prove universal nonparticipation in receptor signaling; this lateral refinement preserves the original IPI and P09038 partner while representing the directly measured trafficking role.

Summary: The inherited physical-attachment claim is unresolved in human CEP57.
Reason: GO:0008608 concerns physical spindle-microtubule association with the kinetochore, not checkpoint signaling alone. The recorded frog donor Q5FWP9 is currently cep57l1 and its PMID:17803911 abstract explicitly reports attachment assays, but this does not by itself invalidate the PAINT PTN001456386 node. Human PMID:26743940 directly establishes Mis12/Mad1 binding and MT-dependent checkpoint behavior while reporting no significant attachment defect after CEP57 depletion. PMID:30804344 also reports different checkpoint results under its conditions. Preserve the IBA and mark the target-specific attachment judgment unresolved rather than converting nonessentiality, paralog nomenclature or incomplete tree knowledge into a removal.

Summary: Direct FGF2 binding supports a contextual cargo-recognition role.
Reason: PMID:12717444 human-library two-hybrid discovery and recombinant binding assays support preferential association with the 18-kDa FGF2 form; FGF1 and the noninteracting FGF2 chimera are controls. Retain fibroblast growth factor binding at non-core scope because its trafficking context is distinct from CEP57's predominant centrosomal structural role.

Reason: The original InterPro-based identical-protein binding is consistent with self-association but can be made more informative. PMID:38857398 measures dimers for human N- and C-terminal domains by SAXS/MALS and resolves the C-terminal dimer interface crystallographically. Preserve the original source and propose protein homodimerization activity; do not infer that all native CEP57 assemblies contain exactly two subunits or that every alternative product has the same interface. This replacement deliberately converges on the existing PMID:12717444 homodimerization annotation; it preserves a separate evidence line and is not proposed as additional term coverage.

That assay alone does not determine stoichiometry, while independent PMID:38857398 directly measures human domain dimers and an atomic C-terminal dimer interface.

GO:0043015 gamma-tubulin binding

GO_REF:0000002
UNDECIDED
Summary: Positive human gamma-TuRC coassociation is retained, but the specific gamma-tubulin binding inference remains unresolved.
Reason: The official IPR025913 entry genuinely maps this domain to gamma-tubulin binding, but its sole cited paper, PMID:18294141, uses gamma-tubulin as a centrosomal localization marker rather than testing that specific interaction. Independent PMID:22508265 Fig. 1D and Results positively co-immunoprecipitate endogenous human CEP57 with gamma-tubulin, GCP2 and NEDD1. NEDD1 is the strongest associated partner, and FRET, domain interaction and depletion experiments support CEP57 association with NEDD1 and NEDD1-dependent CEP57 localization/stability. Those experiments do not test whether the gamma-tubulin association depends on NEDD1, so they neither prove an exclusively NEDD1-mediated bridge nor resolve which gamma-TuRC component contacts CEP57. Retain the positive complex association while leaving the original partner-specific electronic inference undecided. This is not a universal purified-binary-binding requirement or evidence that CEP57 cannot bind gamma-tubulin; no gamma-tubulin enzymatic activity is transferred to CEP57.
Supporting Evidence:

Summary: CEP57 can form higher-order self-assemblies.
Reason: Retain the mouse orthology inference in light of mouse N-terminal multimerization experiments and human self-assembly evidence. Full-length sfGFP-CEP57 forms condensates, while the detailed multivalent-interaction assays use engineered Cep57S and isolated domains. These support a self-assembly capability without assigning a fixed native oligomer size, equating condensates with a unique physiological oligomer, or claiming that all five products behave identically.

Core Functions

CEP57 binds microtubules and supports spindle microtubule organization. Human C-terminal constructs directly co-sediment with microtubules; mouse domain assays and human engineered Cep57S reconstitution further demonstrate tubulin recruitment, bundling and assembly capabilities. Cellular depletion/rescue connects these capabilities to centrosomal and spindle organization without requiring that all in-vitro conditions reproduce a native full-length condensate.

Molecular Function:
microtubule binding
Directly Involved In:
Supporting Evidence:

CEP57 provides cytoskeletal anchoring for centrosomal partners. Its N-terminal region directly recognizes the PCNT PACT domain, and recruitment/binding-deficient mutant and chimera experiments connect this physical interaction to organized pericentriolar material and centriole engagement in mitosis. The model specifies a protein anchor, not a kinase or a demonstrated fixed-stoichiometry motor complex.

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Which assay conditions distinguish the reported human CEP57 checkpoint phenotypes, and does CEP57 contribute directly to physical kinetochore attachment independently of PCM integrity?

Q: How do the five CEP57 products differ in tubulin binding, PCNT anchoring, self-assembly and FGF2 transport?

Q: Does endogenous CEP57 perform a structural step during spermatid maturation beyond the documented mouse stage-specific expression?

Q: Which exact CEP57 construct and target image underlie the original Golgi-localization IDA?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Compare sequence-defined human CEP57 products and separation-of-function mutants in rescued CEP57-deficient cells, independently measuring PCM integrity, centriole engagement, spindle MT density, Mad1 recruitment and cold-stable kinetochore attachments.

Experiment: Test full-length human CEP57 assemblies with purified tubulin and PCNT/CEP63 partners at measured cellular concentrations, separating tubulin binding, bundling, nucleation and phase behavior from the engineered Cep57S reconstitution.

Experiment: Use a germ-cell-specific Cep57 perturbation and matched rescue while controlling for stage composition, measuring spermatid structural maturation separately from transcript abundance.
