CENPW - centromere protein W Gene
Also Known as CUG2; CENP-W; C6orf173
Species: Homo sapiens
About CENPW
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants) and 124 orthologues. Broad expression in bone marrow (RPKM 2.8), testis (RPKM 2.0) and 20 other tissues.
Summary
Predicted to enable DNA binding activity and protein heterodimerization activity. Involved in chromosome segregation; kinetochore assembly; and mitotic cell cycle. Located in kinetochore and nucleoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
