Human Gene KIF18A (ENST00000263181.7) from GENCODE V44
  Description: Homo sapiens kinesin family member 18A (KIF18A), mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_031217)
RefSeq Summary (NM_031217): KIF18A is a member of the kinesin superfamily of microtubule-associated molecular motors (see MIM 148760) that use hydrolysis of ATP to produce force and movement along microtubules (Luboshits and Benayahu, 2005 [PubMed 15878648]).[supplied by OMIM, Aug 2008].

  ID: KI18A_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Kinesin-like protein KIF18A; AltName: Full=Marrow stromal KIF18A; Short=MS-KIF18A;
FUNCTION: Microtubule-depolymerizing kinesin which plays a role in chromosome congression by reducing the amplitude of preanaphase oscillations and slowing poleward movement during anaphase, thus suppressing chromosome movements. May stabilize the CENPE-BUB1B complex at the kinetochores during early mitosis and maintains CENPE levels at kinetochores during chromosome congression.
SUBUNIT: Interacts with CENPE and ESR1.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cell projection, ruffle. Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, centrosome.
INDUCTION: By estrogen.
PTM: Glycosylated.
PTM: Ubiquitinated.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the kinesin-like protein family.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 kinesin-motor domain.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
