CYLD is a tumour-suppressor gene that is mutated in a benign skin tumour syndrome called cylindromatosis. The CYLD gene product is a deubiquitinating enzyme that was shown to regulate cell proliferation, cell survival and inflammatory responses, mainly through inhibiting NF-kappaB signalling. Here we show that CYLD controls cell growth and division at the G(1)/S-phase as well as cytokinesis by associating with alpha-tubulin and microtubules through its CAP-Gly domains. Translocation of activated ...[more]
