General Information

  • Identifier IPR044986
  • Description Kinesin-like protein KIF15/KIN-12E

Abstract

This entry represents a group of kinesin-like proteins, including KIF15 from animals and KIN-12E from Arabidopsis. KIF15 homologues in Xenopus, Xklp2, is required for centrosome separation during mitosis [ 1 ]. KIN-12E has been shown to regulate metaphase spindle flux and help control spindle size in Arabidopsis [ 2 ].
