    Summary
    Enables small GTPase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cytokinetic process; mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint signaling; and nuclear division. Located in Golgi apparatus; kinetochore; and spindle. Part of RZZ complex. Is expressed in several structures, including embryonic central brain neurons; germ layer; gut section; lateral cord neurons; and male germline cyst. Orthologous to human ZW10 (zw10 kinetochore protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
