| Ccna1 | Cyclin-A1; May be involved in the control of the cell cycle at the G1/S (start) and G2/M (mitosis) transitions. May primarily function in the control of the germline meiotic cell cycle and additionally in the control of mitotic cell cycle in some somatic cells. (421 aa) | ||||
| Kif28 | Kinesin-like protein KIF28P; Microtubule-dependent motor protein required for mitochondrion morhology and transport of mitochondria in neuronal cells; Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Kinesin family. (1034 aa) | ||||
| Ppp6r2 | Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase 6 regulatory subunit 2; Regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 6 (PP6). May function as a scaffolding PP6 subunit. Involved in the PP6-mediated dephosphorylation of NFKBIE opposing its degradation in response to TNF-alpha; Belongs to the SAPS family. (923 aa) | ||||
| Dnah8 | Dynein heavy chain 8, axonemal; Force generating protein of respiratory cilia. Produces force towards the minus ends of microtubules. Dynein has ATPase activity; the force-producing power stroke is thought to occur on release of ADP. Involved in sperm motility; implicated in sperm flagellar assembly. (4731 aa) | ||||
| Nup107 | Nuclear pore complex protein Nup107; Plays a role in the nuclear pore complex (NPC) assembly and/or maintenance. Required for the assembly of peripheral proteins into the NPC. May anchor NUP62 to the NPC. Involved in nephrogenesis. (926 aa) | ||||
| Nup160 | Nuclear pore complex protein Nup160; Functions as a component of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). Involved in poly(A)+ RNA transport. (1402 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) | ||||
| Bod1 | Biorientation of chromosomes in cell division protein 1; Required for proper chromosome biorientation through the detection or correction of syntelic attachments in mitotic spindles. Belongs to the BOD1 family. (173 aa) | ||||
| Haspin | Serine/threonine-protein kinase haspin; Serine/threonine-protein kinase that phosphorylates histone H3 at 'Thr-3' (H3T3ph) during mitosis. May act through H3T3ph to both position and modulate activation of AURKB and other components of the chromosomal passenger complex (CPC) at centromeres to ensure proper chromatid cohesion, metaphase alignment and normal progression through the cell cycle. (754 aa) | ||||
| Tst | Thiosulfate sulfurtransferase; Together with MRPL18, acts as a mitochondrial import factor for the cytosolic 5S rRNA. Only the nascent unfolded cytoplasmic form is able to bind to the 5S rRNA (By similarity). Formation of iron- sulfur complexes and cyanide detoxification. (297 aa) | ||||
| Cdc25c | M-phase inducer phosphatase 3; Functions as a dosage-dependent inducer in mitotic control. Tyrosine protein phosphatase required for progression of the cell cycle. Directly dephosphorylates CDK1 and activates its kinase activity. When phosphorylated, highly effective in activating G2 cells into prophase (By similarity). May be involved in regulating the proliferation of T-lymphocytes following cytokine stimulation. (447 aa) | ||||
| Ensa | Alpha-endosulfine; Protein phosphatase inhibitor that specifically inhibits protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) during mitosis. When phosphorylated at Ser-67 during mitosis, specifically interacts with PPP2R2D (PR55-delta) and inhibits its activity, leading to inactivation of PP2A, an essential condition to keep cyclin-B1-CDK1 activity high during M phase. Also acts as a stimulator of insulin secretion by interacting with sulfonylurea receptor (ABCC8), thereby preventing sulfonylurea from binding to its receptor and reducing K(ATP) channel currents (By similarity). (121 aa) | ||||
| Kif4 | Chromosome-associated kinesin KIF4; Required for mitotic chromosomal positioning and bipolar spindle stabilization. (1231 aa) | ||||
