T-complex protein 1 subunit alpha (TCP1)

Part of the chaperonin-containing T-complex (TRiC), a molecular chaperone complex that assists the folding of proteins upon ATP hydrolysis (PubMed:25467444). The TRiC complex mediates the folding of WRAP53/TCAB1, thereby regulating telomere maintenance (PubMed:25467444).

As part of the TRiC complex may play a role in the assembly of BBSome, a complex involved in ciliogenesis regulating transfers vesicles into the cilia (PubMed:20080638). The TRiC complex plays a role in the folding of actin and tubulin (Probable).
