Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Essential component of the mitotic spindle required for faithful chromosome segregation and progression into anaphase. Promotes the metaphase-to-anaphase transition and is required for chromosome alignment, normal timing of sister chromatid segregation, and maintenance of spindle pole architecture. The astrin (SPAG5)-kinastrin (SKAP) complex promotes stable microtubule-kinetochore attachments. {ECO:0000269PubMed:19667759, ECO:0000269PubMed:21402792, ECO:0000269PubMed:22110139}.
Subcellular Localization Nucleus. Chromosome, centromere, kinetochore. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle pole. Note=Colocalizes with microtubules around centrosomes in prophase and with the mitotic spindle at prometaphase and metaphase. From late prometaphase to anaphase, is highly concentrated on kinetochores. Located at the kinetochore-microtubule interface. The astrin (SPAG5)-kinastrin (SKAP) complex localizes to the microtubule plus ends.
