Description
KIN1 kinesin motor catalytic domain protein; Kinesin II heavy chain homolog; implicated in intraciliary transport; shares essential functions with KIN2 in ciliary assembly and maintenance- rotokinesis and phagocytosis; localizes to locomotory and oral cilia undergoing active assembly
KIP1 Kinesin-related motor pro
tein required for mitotic spin
dle assembly, chromosome segre
gation, and 2 micron plasmid p
artitioning; functionally redu
ndant with Cin8p for chromosom
al but not plasmid functions
