text
  • localizes to kinetochores and kinetochore microtubules in a manner identical to ZW10 and KNTC1
  • basic FUNCTION
  • part of a complex necessary for accurate chromosome segregation, recruiting cytoplasmic dynein to the kinetochore and participating in the spindle checkpoint
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • RZZ (KNTC1/ZW10/ZWILCH) complex is required for the recruitment of cytoplasmic dynein to kinetochores
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • weak interaction between the ZW10/KNTC1/ZWILCH complex and the kinesin-like kinetochore component CENPE
  • CCDC99 is a cell cycle-regulated mitotic phosphoprotein that interacts with the KNTC1/ZW10/ZWILCH (RZZ) complex
