About This Section
| UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: KIF2B_HUMAN, Q8N4N8 (See
protein sequence)Recommended Name: Kinesin-like protein KIF2B Size: 673 amino acids; 76254 Da
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, centrosome. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle. Chromosome, centromere,kinetochore. Note=Association with kinetochore is transient
Miscellaneous: Osteosarcoma cells (U2OS) lacking KIF2B show disorganised often monopolar mitotic spindles, severelyreduced velocity of chromosome movement and blocked cytokinesis. Bipolar mitotic spindles can be restored bysimultaneous depletion of KIF2B, KIFC1 and NUMA1
