Supplementary information

The Eg5 protein also known scientifically as kinesin family member 11 (KIF11) plays an important role in cell mitosis. It functions mechanically as a plus-end directed motor involved in the separation of centrosomes during the early stage of cell division. Eg5 with an approximate mass of 116 kDa is responsible for the proper alignment and segregation of spindle fibers. The protein is expressed in rapidly dividing cells particularly within tissues with high turnover rates such as bone marrow and epithelium.
Biological function summary

The motor function of Eg5 is indispensable for the mitotic spindle organization. It provides the force necessary to push microtubules in opposite directions. Eg5 functions as part of a complex cellular machinery that includes proteins like dynein and other kinesins. By controlling spindle bipolarity it ensures accurate chromosome segregation during cell division preventing errors that could lead to aneuploidy.

Pathways

The action of Eg5 is fundamental in mitotic pathways including the spindle assembly checkpoint pathway. It interacts with proteins such as cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) which regulate its activity to ensure proper cell cycle progression. The protein's role is integral in facilitating the dynamics of the metaphase spindle checkpoint guaranteeing cell cycle fidelity.

Eg5 is linked to certain types of cancers where there is abnormal cell division. The overexpression or dysregulation of Eg5 can contribute to tumorigenesis. Additionally Eg5 interacts with proteins involved in cancer such as p53 a tumor suppressor protein directly influencing cellular proliferation and survival. Researchers target Eg5 in the development of anticancer therapies to inhibit its activity aiming to obstruct malignant cell proliferation.
