EG5 Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

This gene encodes a motor protein that belongs to the kinesin-like protein family. Members of this protein family are known to be involved in various kinds of spindle dynamics. The function of this gene product includes chromosome positioning, centrosome separation and establishing a bipolar spindle during cell mitosis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

KIF11: a cytoskeletal protein that belongs to the kinesin-like protein family. BimC subfamily. Interacts with the thyroid hormone receptor in the presence of thyroid hormone. Plays a role in chromosome positioning, centrosome separation and establishing a bipolar spindle during cell mitosis. Phosphorylation regulates its association with the spindle apparatus.
