About CENPQ

Cytogenetic location: 6p12.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:49,463,370-49,493,107 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant) and 170 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 3.5), brain (RPKM 3.4) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

CENPQ is a subunit of a CENPH (MIM 605607)-CENPI (MIM 300065)-associated centromeric complex that targets CENPA (MIM 117139) to centromeres and is required for proper kinetochore function and mitotic progression (Okada et al., 2006 [PubMed 16622420]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
