KNSTRN kinetochore localized astrin (SPAG5) binding protein

Gene ID: 90417, updated on 19-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: SKAP; HSD11; ROCHIS; C15orf23; TRAF4AF1

Summary

Enables microtubule plus-end binding activity and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to epidermal growth factor stimulus; mitotic sister chromatid segregation; and regulation of attachment of spindle microtubules to kinetochore. Located in several cellular components, including kinetochore; microtubule cytoskeleton; and ruffle. Implicated in actinic keratosis and skin squamous cell carcinoma.
