Kif18b - kinesin family member 18B Gene

Predicted to enable ATP hydrolysis activity; cytoskeletal protein binding activity; and plus-end-directed microtubule motor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including microtubule depolymerization; mitotic sister chromatid segregation; and regulation of cell division. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell division. Predicted to be located in cytosol; microtubule; and nuclear body. Predicted to be part of Kinesin complex. Predicted to be active in mitotic spindle astral microtubule; mitotic spindle midzone; and nucleus. Orthologous to human KIF18B (Kinesin family member 18B).
