ZW10 rabbit pAb

This gene encodes a protein that is one of many involved in mechanisms to ensure proper chromosome segregation during cell division. This protein is an essential component of the mitotic checkpoint, which prevents cells from prematurely exiting mitosis. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Cytoplasm . Endoplasmic reticulum membrane ; Peripheral membrane protein . Chromosome, centromere, kinetochore . Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle . Lipid droplet . Dynamic pattern of localization during the cell cycle. In most cells at interphase, present diffusely in the cytoplasm (PubMed:15029241) . In prometaphase, associated with the kinetochore. At metaphase, detected both at the kinetochores and, most prominently, at the spindle, particularly at the spindle poles. In very early anaphase, detected on segregating kinetochores. In late anaphase and telophase, accumulates at the spindle midzone (PubMed:11590237) . .
