| Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylation by AURKB, regulates association with centromeres and kinetochores and the microtubule depolymerization activity. Ubiquitinated. |
| Function | In complex with KIF18B, constitutes the major microtubule plus-end depolymerizing activity in mitotic cells. Regulates the turnover of microtubules at the kinetochore and functions in chromosome segregation during mitosis. Plays a role in chromosome congression and is required for the lateral to end-on conversion of the chromosome-microtubule attachment. |
