Biological function summary
The MCAK protein contributes to accurate chromosome segregation. MCAK performs its functions by binding to microtubule ends and removing tubulin subunits thereby aiding in microtubule disassembly. It functions within the mitotic spindle apparatus and ensures that chromosomes align properly and evenly separate to opposite poles of the dividing cell. This activity is not part of a complex but acts independently to correct improper microtubule attachments.
Pathways
MCAK plays a significant role in mitotic and cell cycle pathways. It coordinates with other proteins like Aurora B kinase which is involved in correcting improper kinetochore-microtubule attachments to maintain chromosome stability during mitosis. MCAK interacts with proteins controlling cell cycle checkpoints overlapping with pathways ensuring cells do not progress with errors in chromosome segregation.
