Sgo2 - shugoshin 2 Gene

Predicted to be involved in homologous chromosome segregation; meiotic sister chromatid cohesion; and mitotic sister chromatid segregation. Predicted to act upstream of or within meiotic nuclear division; positive regulation of maintenance of meiotic sister chromatid cohesion, centromeric; and protein localization. Predicted to be located in condensed chromosome, centromeric region and nuclear body. Predicted to be part of mitotic cohesin complex. Predicted to be active in kinetochore. Orthologous to human SGO2 (shugoshin 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
