| Function | Component of the central kinetochore, which mediates the attachment of the centromere to the mitotic spindle by forming essential interactions between the microtubule-associated outer kinetochore proteins and the centromere-associated inner kinetochore proteins. Required for establishing bipolar spindle- microtubule attachments and proper chromosome segregation. |
| Subcellular Location | Nucleus. Chromosome, centromere, kinetochore. Note=Associated with kinetochores. |
