Biological function summary
ZWILCH is fundamental in ensuring accurate chromosome alignment and segregation during cell division. It plays a part as a component of the RZZ complex. The RZZ complex localizes to kinetochores which are critical for connecting spindle microtubules to chromosomes promoting bioriented chromosome alignment. Moreover ZWILCH contributes to the spindle assembly checkpoint a safety mechanism that prevents chromosome mis-segregation by delaying progress to anaphase until all chromosomes are correctly attached.
Pathways
ZWILCH plays integral roles in the mitotic spindle checkpoint and chromosomal stability pathways. Within these pathways ZWILCH associates closely with spindle assembly checkpoint proteins such as MAD2 and BUBR1 which monitor kinetochore-microtubule attachment. ZWILCH through its role in the RZZ complex communicates tension status between sister chromatids ensuring proper cell-cycle progression and genomic integrity.

General info
Function
Essential component of the mitotic checkpoint, which prevents cells from prematurely exiting mitosis. Required for the assembly of the dynein-dynactin and MAD1-MAD2 complexes onto kinetochores. Its function related to the spindle assembly machinery is proposed to depend on its association in the mitotic RZZ complex (PubMed : 15824131).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the ZWILCH family.
