EOG8NP5Q2

sce:DAD1

Genes: 17

SGD Description
Essential subunit of the Dam1 complex (aka DASH complex); complex couples kinetochores to the force produced by MT depolymerization thereby aiding in chromosome segregation; is transferred to the kinetochore prior to mitosis


PomBase Description
DASH complex subunit Dad1


AspGD Description
Has domain(s) with predicted role in mitotic spindle organization in nucleus and DASH complex, mitotic spindle localization
