fta7

Gene
fta7
Protein
Inner kinetochore subunit fta7
Organism
Schizosaccharomyces pombe (strain 972 / ATCC 24843)
Length
244 amino acids
Function
Component of the kinetochore, a multiprotein complex that assembles on centromeric DNA and attaches chromosomes to spindle microtubules, mediating chromosome segregation and sister chromatid segregation during meiosis and mitosis. Component of the inner kinetochore COMA complex, which connects centromere-associated proteins and the outer kinetochore. COMA interacts with other inner kinetochore proteins to form the inner kinetochore constitutive centromere-associated network (CCAN), which serves as a structural platform for outer kinetochore assembly.
Similarity
Belongs to the CENP-Q/OKP1 family.
Mass
