---|---|
Synonyms | ICEN36, MCM21R |
Function | Component of the CENPA-CAD (nucleosome distal) complex, a complex recruited to centromeres which is involved in assembly of kinetochore proteins, mitotic progression and chromosome segregation. May be involved in incorporation of newly synthesized CENPA into centromeres via its interaction with the CENPA-NAC complex. Modulates the kinetochore-bound levels of NDC80 complex. |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Chromosome, centromere. Chromosome, centromere, kinetochore. Note=The CENPA-CAD complex is probably recruited on centromeres by the CENPA-NAC complex |

Background
CENPO Antibody: Accurate chromosome segregation during mitosis requires a kinetochore to assemble correctly at the centromere of each chromatid and form a dynamic interface with the microtubules of the mitotic spindle. The kinetochore assembly includes the multisubunit CENP-H/I complex which can be divided into three functional classes based on phenotype analysis. One of these classes is referred to as the CENP-O class of proteins of which CENPO is the exemplar. These proteins form a stable complex with each other and are required for proper kinetochore function and for recovery from mitotic spindle damage. CENPO has also been shown to be an auto-antigen in a small population of anti-centromere antibodies- (ACA-) positive patients with sclerodoma.
