DESCRIPTION

Also known as KIF14_MOUSE, Kif14. Microtubule motor protein that binds to microtubules with high affinity through each tubulin heterodimer and has an ATPase activity (PubMed:24949858). Plays a role in many processes like cell division, cytokinesis and also in cell proliferation and apoptosis (By similarity). During cytokinesis, targets to central spindle and midbody through its interaction with PRC1 and CIT respectively (By similarity). Regulates cell growth through regulation of cell cycle progression and cytokinesis. During cell cycle progression acts through SCF-dependent proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process which controls CDKN1B degradation, resulting in positive regulation of cyclins, including CCNE1, CCND1 and CCNB1 (By similarity). During late neurogenesis, regulates the cerebellar and cerebral cortex development and olfactory bulb development through regulation of apoptosis, cell proliferation and cell division (PubMed:23308235, PubMed:24931760). Also is required for chromosome congression and alignment during mitotic cell cycle process (By similarity). Regulates cell spreading, focal adhesion dynamics, and cell migration through its interaction with RADIL resulting in regulation of RAP1A-mediated inside-out integrin activation by tethering RADIL on microtubules (By similarity). Directly interacts with PRC1 within a complex also containing KIF4A, KIF20A and KIF23; targets to the central spindle. Directly interacts with CIT depending on the activation state of the kinase (stronger interaction with the kinase-dead form); targets to the midbody. Interacts with ARRB2; the interaction is detected in the nucleus upon OR1D2 stimulation (By similarity). Interacts with AKT1; the interaction is detected in the plasma membrane upon INS stimulation and promotes AKT1 phosphorylation. Interacts with SVIL; at midbody during cytokinesis. Interacts with RADIL (via PDZ domain); recruits RADIL to the microtubule network restricting RADIL from interaction with activated RAP1A.
