Centromere protein U is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CENPU gene. [5] [6] [7] [8]
The centromere links a pair of sister chromatids together during cell division. This constricted region of chromosome connects the sister chromatids, creating a short arm (p) and a long arm (q) on the chromatids. During mitosis, spindle fibers attach to the centromere via the kinetochore.
Centromere protein B also known as major centromere autoantigen B is an autoantigen protein of the cell nucleus. In humans, centromere protein B is encoded by the CENPB gene.
Centromere protein A, also known as CENPA, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the CENPA gene. CENPA is a histone H3 variant which is the critical factor determining the kinetochore position(s) on each chromosome in most eukaryotes including humans.
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RING2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the RNF2 gene.
Centromere-associated protein E is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CENPE gene.
Kinesin-like protein KIF2C is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KIF2C gene.
Centromere protein C 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CENPC1 gene.
Pre-mRNA-splicing factor ATP-dependent RNA helicase PRP16 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DHX38 gene.
Serrate RNA effector molecule homolog (SRRT) also known as arsenite-resistance protein 2 (ARS2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SRRT gene.
Remodeling and spacing factor 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RSF1 gene.
Centromere protein H is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CENPH gene. It is involved in the assembly of kinetochore proteins, mitotic progression and chromosome segregation.
Centromere protein I is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CENPI gene.
Zinc finger CCCH domain-containing protein 13 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ZC3H13 gene.
Kinetochore-associated protein NSL1 homolog is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NSL1 gene.
Chromobox protein homolog 8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CBX8 gene.
Centromere protein T is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CENPT gene.
Centromere protein O is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CENPO gene. CENPO is involved in cell proliferation and cell cycle progression and has been shown to be down-regulated in trisomic neurospheres a mouse model of Down Syndrome, resulting in reduced numbers of neural progenitors and neuroblasts and a severe reduction in numbers of neurons produced.
Nucleoporin 93 (Nup93) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NUP93 gene.
Centromere protein N is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CENPN gene.
Centromere protein L is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CENPL gene.
