Summary
TBCE (tubulin folding cofactor E, HGNC:11582) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1q42.3, encoding Tubulin-specific chaperone E (Q15813). Tubulin-folding protein; involved in the second step of the tubulin folding pathway and in the regulation of tubulin heterodimer dissociation. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 57.3% of cell lines).
Cofactor E is one of four proteins (cofactors A, D, E, and C) involved in the pathway leading to correctly folded beta-tubulin from folding intermediates. Cofactors A and D are believed to play a role in capturing and stabilizing beta-tubulin intermediates in a quasi-native confirmation. Cofactor E binds to the cofactor D/beta-tubulin complex; interaction with cofactor C then causes the release of beta-tubulin polypeptides that are committed to the native state. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.

- Tbce is critical for the maintenance of microtubules in mouse motor axons (PMID:12389029)

- TBCE, TBCB and alpha-tubulin form a ternary complex after heterodimer dissociation. These complexes might serve to escort alpha-tubulin towards degradation or recycling, depending on the cell requirements. (PMID:17184771)
- Depletion of Op18 by means of RNA interference increased the susceptibility of tubulin to TBCE or E-like mediated disruption, while overexpressed Op18 exerted a tubulin-protective effect. (PMID:18262179)
- Study demonstrates that, unlike its counterpart TBCE, TBCB only moderately destabilizes microtubules. (PMID:19168853)
- TBCE is required for the normal development and function of neuromuscular synapses and that it promotes microtubule formation (PMID:19297412)

Function. Tubulin-folding protein; involved in the second step of the tubulin folding pathway and in the regulation of tubulin heterodimer dissociation. Required for correct organization of microtubule cytoskeleton and mitotic splindle, and maintenance of the neuronal microtubule network.
Subunit / interactions. Supercomplex made of cofactors A to E. Cofactors A and D function by capturing and stabilizing tubulin in a quasi-native conformation. Cofactor E binds to the cofactor D-tubulin complex; interaction with cofactor C then causes the release of tubulin polypeptides that are committed to the native state. Cofactors B and E can form a heterodimer which binds to alpha-tubulin and enhances their ability to dissociate tubulin heterodimers. Interacts with TBCD.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytoskeleton.
Disease relevance. Hypoparathyroidism-retardation-dysmorphism syndrome (HRDS) [MIM:241410] An autosomal recessive multisystem disorder characterized by hypoparathyroidism, intrauterine and postnatal growth retardation, psychomotor retardation, epilepsy, microcephaly, and facial dysmorphism. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Kenny-Caffey syndrome 1 (KCS1) [MIM:244460] An autosomal recessive form of Kenny-Caffey syndrome, a disorder characterized by impaired skeletal development with small and dense bones, short stature, and primary hypoparathyroidism with hypocalcemia. Clinical features include cortical thickening and medullary stenosis of the tubular bones, delayed closure of fontanels, defective dentition, small eyes with hypermetropia, and frontal bossing with a triangular face. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Encephalopathy, progressive, with amyotrophy and optic atrophy (PEAMO) [MIM:617207] An autosomal recessive, progressive, neurodegenerative encephalopathy with onset in infancy. Affected individuals manifest delayed psychomotor development, severe hypotonia, motor regression, spinal muscular atrophy, distal amyotrophy and weakness of all limbs, and intellectual disability of variable severity. Additional features include optic atrophy, thin corpus callosum, and cerebellar atrophy. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
