Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a protein that is clearly involved in kinetochore function although an exact role is not known. It interacts with ZW10, another kinetochore protein, possibly regulating the association between ZW10 and kinetochores. The encoded protein localizes to prophase kinetochores before ZW10 does and it remains detectable on the kinetochore until late anaphase. It has a uniform distribution in the cytoplasm of interphase cells. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

  • UniProt Summary: Part of the MIS12 complex, which is required for kinetochore formation and spindle checkpoint activity. Required to target ZW10 to the kinetochore at prometaphase. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15094189, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15485811, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15824131, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16732327}.
