sce:DUO1
Genes: 5
SGD DescriptionEssential subunit of the Dam1 complex (aka DASH complex); cooperates with Dam1p to connect the DASH complex with microtubules (MT); couples kinetochores to the force produced by MT depolymerization thereby aiding in chromosome segregation; is transferred to the kinetochore prior to mitosis
