Note=Localizes to microtubule plus ends (PubMed:17828277, PubMed:22777741, PubMed:25774020). Localizes preferentially to the ends of tyrosinated microtubules (PubMed:26972003). Localization at centrosome is regulated by SLK-dependent phosphorylation (PubMed:23985322). Localizes to centrosome in a PARKDA-dependent manner (PubMed:20719959). Localizes to the subdistal appendage region of the centriole in a KIF3A-dependent manner (PubMed:23386061). PLK1-mediated phosphorylation at Ser-179 is essential for its localization in the nuclear envelope (PubMed:20679239). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17828277, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20679239, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20719959, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22777741, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23386061, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23985322, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25774020, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26972003}.
