ID:FA83D_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Protein FAM83D; AltName: Full=Spindle protein CHICA; FUNCTION: Required for proper chromosome congression and alignment during mitosis. Required for targeting KIF22/KID to the spindle microtubules. SUBUNIT: Interacts with KIF22/KID. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle pole. Note=Primarily cytoplasmic during interphase, but beginning in prophase, associates with spindle microtubules, with a clear concentration toward the spindle poles. It persists on spindle microtubules through metaphase and anaphase. MISCELLANEOUS: Was named CHICA (girl in Spanish) because it interacts with KID. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the FAM83 family. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAH01068.2; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=AAH06553.3; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=AAH53683.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=AAH63661.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=AAH80188.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=BAB71016.1; Type=Erroneous termination; Positions=262; Note=Translated as Trp; Sequence=CAI22033.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
