| Kifc5b | Kinesin-like protein; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family. (672 aa) | ||||
| Ccnb1 | G2/mitotic-specific cyclin-B1; Essential for the control of the cell cycle at the G2/M (mitosis) transition; Belongs to the cyclin family. Cyclin AB subfamily. (430 aa) | ||||
| Rrs1 | Ribosome biogenesis regulatory protein homolog; Involved in ribosomal large subunit assembly. May regulate the localization of the 5S RNP/5S ribonucleoprotein particle to the nucleolus. (365 aa) | ||||
| Terb1 | Telomere repeats-binding bouquet formation protein 1; Meiosis-specific telomere-associated protein involved in meiotic telomere attachment to the nucleus inner membrane, a crucial step for homologous pairing and synapsis. Component of the MAJIN-TERB1-TERB2 complex, which promotes telomere cap exchange by mediating attachment of telomeric DNA to the inner nuclear membrane and replacement of the protective cap of telomeric chromosomes: in early meiosis, the MAJIN- TERB1-TERB2 complex associates with telomeric DNA and the shelterin/telosome complex. During prophase, the complex matures an [...] (768 aa) | ||||
| Kif2c | Kinesin-like protein KIF2C; In complex with KIF18B, constitutes the major microtubule plus-end depolymerizing activity in mitotic cells. Regulates the turnover of microtubules at the kinetochore and functions in chromosome segregation during mitosis. Plays a role in chromosome congression and is required for the lateral to end-on conversion of the chromosome-microtubule attachment (By similarity). Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family. MCAK/KIF2 subfamily. (721 aa) | ||||
| Spo11 | Meiotic recombination protein SPO11; [Isoform 1]: Component of a topoisomerase 6 complex specifically required for meiotic recombination. Together with TOP6BL, mediates DNA cleavage that forms the double-strand breaks (DSB) that initiate meiotic recombination. The complex promotes relaxation of negative and positive supercoiled DNA and DNA decatenation through cleavage and ligation cycles. Essential for the phosphorylation of SMC3, HORMAD1 and HORMAD2. (396 aa) | ||||
| Spice1 | Spindle and centriole-associated protein 1; Regulator required for centriole duplication, for proper bipolar spindle formation and chromosome congression in mitosis. (860 aa) | ||||
| Kif2b | Kinesin-like protein KIF2B; Plus end-directed microtubule-dependent motor required for spindle assembly and chromosome movement during mitosis. Has microtubule depolymerization activity. Plays a role in chromosome congression. (668 aa) | ||||
| Cenpe | Centromere-associated protein E; Microtubule plus-end-directed kinetochore motor which plays an important role in chromosome congression, microtubule-kinetochore conjugation and spindle assembly checkpoint activation. Drives chromosome congression (alignment of chromosomes at the spindle equator resulting in the formation of the metaphase plate) by mediating the lateral sliding of polar chromosomes along spindle microtubules towards the spindle equator and by aiding the establishment and maintenance of connections between kinetochores and spindle microtubules. The transport of pole-pro [...] (2471 aa) | ||||
| Champ1 | Chromosome alignment-maintaining phosphoprotein 1; Required for proper alignment of chromosomes at metaphase and their accurate segregation during mitosis. Involved in the maintenance of spindle microtubules attachment to the kinetochore during sister chromatid biorientation. May recruit CENPE and CENPF to the kinetochore (By similarity). (802 aa) | ||||
