Gene:
ZW10 homolog, centromere/kinetochore protein (Drosophila)
Gene ID:
194145
Symbol:
ZW10
Species:
1000
Description:
This gene encodes a protein that is one of many involved in mechanisms to ensure proper chromosome segregation during cell division. The encoded protein binds to centromeres during the prophase, metaphase, and early anaphase cell division stages and to kinetochore microtubules during metaphase.
