Summary: Enables GTP binding activity and microtubule binding activity. Involved in several processes, including germ cell development; hemocyte migration; and microtubule cytoskeleton organization. Located in several cellular components, including fusome; microtubule cytoskeleton; and spectrosome. Part of microtubule associated complex. Is expressed in several structures, including head; motor neurons; ovary; and presumptive embryonic/larval central nervous system. Orthologous to human CLASP1 (cytoplasmic linker associated protein 1) and CLASP2 (cytoplasmic linker associated protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Orbit/CLASP determines centriole length by antagonising Klp10A in Drosophila spermatocytes.
Title: Orbit/CLASP determines centriole length by antagonising Klp10A in Drosophila spermatocytes.
Findings suggest that Msps is a novel Rac effector that acts, in partnership with Orbit, to regionally regulate microtubule dynamics.
Title: TOG Proteins Are Spatially Regulated by Rac-GSK3β to Control Interphase Microtubule Dynamics.
Orbit plays an essential role as a connector between microtubules and the contractile ring in Drosophila male meiosis.
Title: Orbit/CLASP is required for myosin accumulation at the cleavage furrow in Drosophila male meiosis.
Orbit is involved in the proper orientation of spindles towards fusomes during synchronous mitosis of spermatogonial cysts.
Title: Orbit/CLASP is required for germline cyst formation through its developmental control of fusomes and ring canals in Drosophila males.
Data suggest a model in which CLASP and Msps converge in an antagonistic balance in the Abl signaling pathway.
Title: Parallel genetic and proteomic screens identify Msps as a CLASP-Abl pathway interactor in Drosophila.
Dynein and mast/orbit/CLASP have antagonistic roles in regulating kinetochore-microtubule plus-end dynamics.
Title: Dynein and mast/orbit/CLASP have antagonistic roles in regulating kinetochore-microtubule plus-end dynamics.
results suggest that Mast plays an essential role in reducing the dynamic behaviour of microtubules by specifically promoting the pause state
Title: The Drosophila CLASP homologue, Mast/Orbit regulates the dynamic behaviour of interphase microtubules by promoting the pause state.
is an essential component for microtubule subunit incorporation into fluxing K-fibres
Title: Drosophila CLASP is required for the incorporation of microtubule subunits into fluxing kinetochore fibres.
MAST/Orbit has a role in microtubule-kinetochore attachment and is essential for chromosome alignment and maintenance of spindle bipolarity.
Title: MAST/Orbit has a role in microtubule-kinetochore attachment and is essential for chromosome alignment and maintenance of spindle bipolarity.
Orbit/Mast/CLASP localizes to interior rather than peripheral central spindle microtubules
Title: Mutations in orbit/mast reveal that the central spindle is comprised of two microtubule populations, those that initiate cleavage and those that propagate furrow ingression.
