KIF18A Products

Description

The kinesin superfamily of proteins consists of over forty KIF motor proteins that function in intracellular transport along microtubules. Kinesin activity has been linked to various cellular functions such as vesicle transport, mitotic spindle formation, chromosome segregation, chromosome congression, and cytokinesis. Structurally, all kinesins contain a motor domain with microtubule and nucleotide binding sites that utilize ATP to target cargo along microtubule filaments. KIF18 has been demonstrated to be a microtubule depolymerase essential for chromosome alignment at the spindle equator. Alternate names for KIF18A include kinesin family member 18A, kinesin-like protein KIF18A, and DKFZP434G2226.
