Kif2c - kinesin family member 2C Gene

Also Known as MCAK; ESTM5; Knsl6; 4930402F02Rik

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 73804

Summary

Predicted to enable ATP hydrolysis activity; microtubule motor activity; and microtubule plus-end binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including attachment of mitotic spindle microtubules to kinetochore; microtubule Cytoskeleton organization; and regulation of chromosome segregation. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell division and chromosome segregation. Located in chromosome, centromeric region. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human KIF2C (Kinesin family member 2C).
