Background
kinesin family member 2C(KIF2C) Homo sapiens This gene encodes a kinesin-like protein that functions as a microtubule-dependent molecular motor. The encoded protein can depolymerize microtubules at the plus end, thereby promoting mitotic chromosome segregation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014],function:Present throughout the cell cycle, associates with centromeres at early prophase, and remains associated with the centromere until after telophase.,PTM:Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.,similarity:Belongs to the kinesin-like protein family.,similarity:Belongs to the kinesin-like protein family. MCAK/KIF2 subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 kinesin-motor domain.,subunit:Interacts with CENPH.,tissue specificity:Expressed at high levels in thymus and testis, at low levels in small intestine, the mucosal lining of colon, and placenta, and at very low levels in spleen and ovary; expression is not detected in prostate, peripheral blood Leukocytes, heart, brain, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney or pancreas.,
