Anti-KIF22 Antibody

KIF22, also known as KID (kinesin-like DNA-binding protein), is a kinesin-like DNA-binding protein known to be involved in chromosome movement during mitosis. KIF22 is a nuclear protein regulated by SIAH-1, whose level fluctuate in a cell cycle-dependent manner, increasing during pre-mitotic phases and greatly decreasing during mitosis. KIF22 localizes to the nucleus of the interphase cells upon entry into mitosis and displays some punctate cytoplasmic staining. Defects in KIF22 are the cause of spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia with joint laxity, type 2 (SEMDJL2) .
