Function Summary
- Entrez Summary: N/A
- UniProt Summary: Acts as a component of the essential kinetochore- associated NDC80 complex, which is required for chromosome segregation and spindle checkpoint activity (PubMed:12438418, PubMed:14654001, PubMed:15062103, PubMed:15235793, PubMed:15239953, PubMed:15548592, PubMed:17535814). Required for kinetochore integrity and the organization of stable microtubule binding sites in the outer plate of the kinetochore (PubMed:15548592). The NDC80 complex synergistically enhances the affinity of the SKA1 complex for microtubules and may allow the NDC80 complex to track depolymerizing microtubules (PubMed:23085020). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12438418, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14654001, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15062103, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15235793, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15239953, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15548592, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17535814, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23085020}.
