Gene information for KIF23 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9493
Official gene symbolKIF23
Full namekinesin family member 23
Aliases,CHO1,KNSL5,MKLP-1,MKLP1,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of kinesin-like protein family. This family includes microtubule-dependent molecular motors that transport organelles within cells and move chromosomes during cell division. This protein has been shown to cross-bridge antiparallel microtubules and drive microtubule movement in vitro. Alternate splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding two different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq]
