Kinesin-like protein KIF22 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF22 gene. [5] [6] [7]
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of kinesin-like protein family. This family of proteins are microtubule-dependent molecular motors that transport organelles within cells and move chromosomes during cell division. The C-terminal half of this protein has been shown to bind DNA. Studies with the Xenopus homolog suggests an essential role in metaphase chromosome alignment and maintenance. [7]
Mutations in this gene have been shown to cause developmental disorders such as Spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia with joint laxity. [9]
Kinesin-like protein KIF23 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF23 gene.
Kinesin-like protein KIF1B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF1B gene.
Centromere-associated protein E is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CENPE gene.
Chromosome-associated kinesin KIF4A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF4A gene.
Kinesin-like protein KIF2C is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF2C gene.
Kinesin-like protein KIF3A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF3A gene.
Kinesin-like protein KIF20A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF20A gene.
Kinesin-like protein KIF21A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF21A gene.
Tubulin alpha-8 chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TUBA8 gene.
Kinesin-associated protein 3 (KAP3) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIFAP3 gene. It is a non-motor, accessory subunit which co-oligomerizes with the motor subunits KIF3A and KIF3B or KIF3C, to form heterotrimeric kinesin-2 motor proteins. Kinesin-2 KAP subunits were initially characterized in echinoderms and mice.
Kinesin-like protein KIF18A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF18A gene.
Kinesin-like protein KIF14 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF14 gene.
Kinesin-like protein KIFC1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIFC1 gene.
Kinesin-like protein KIF13A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF13A gene.
KIF1-binding protein, also known as Kinesin binding protein(KBP), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIAA1279 gene. The interaction of KBP with Kif15 is necessary for the localization of Kif15 to the microtubule plus-end at the spindle equator. Interaction between Kif15 and KBP is essential for the perfect alignment of chromosomes at the metaphase plate, and any defect in their interaction leads to delay in chromosomal alignment during mitosis. Anything that perturb the interaction of KBP and Kif15 can block the cells at mitosis, and hence it can be therapeutically used to control Kif15 upregulated cancer cells.
Kinesin-like protein KIF2A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF2A gene.
Kinesin-like protein KIF3C is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF3C gene.
Kinesin family member 16B, also known as KIF16B, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the KIF16B gene.
Kinesin-like protein KIF11 is a molecular motor protein that is essential in mitosis. In humans it is coded for by the gene KIF11. Kinesin-like protein KIF11 is a member of the kinesin superfamily, which are nanomotors that move along microtubule tracks in the cell. Named from studies in the early days of discovery, it is also known as Kinesin-5, or as BimC, Eg5 or N-2, based on the founding members of this kinesin family.
Kinesin family member 15 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF15 gene.
