Kntc1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable small GTPase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in mitotic sister chromatid segregation; mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint signaling; and protein localization to kinetochore involved in kinetochore assembly. Predicted to be located in cytoskeleton; cytosol; and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of RZZ complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and kinetochore microtubule. Orthologous to human KNTC1 (kinetochore associated 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Kntc1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
