CKAP5
Cytoskeleton-associated protein 5 is a microtubule-associated protein that in humans is encoded by the CKAP5 gene. It is the homolog of the Xenopus protein XMAP215 and is also known as ch-Tog.
It has at least two distinct roles in spindle formation: it protects kinetochore microtubules from depolymerization by MCAK, and ch-Tog plays an essential role in centrosomal microtubule assembly, a function independent of MCAK activity.Interactions
CKAP5 has been shown to interact with TACC1.
