---|---|
Synonyms | RED {ECO:0000303|PubMed:10216252}, RER |
Function | Involved in pre-mRNA splicing as a component of the spliceosome (PubMed:28781166). Auxiliary spliceosomal protein that regulates selection of alternative splice sites in a small set of target pre-mRNA species (Probable). Required for normal mitotic cell cycle progression (PubMed:22351768, PubMed:24252166). Recruits MAD1L1 and MAD2L1 to kinetochores, and is required to trigger the spindle assembly checkpoint (PubMed:22351768). Required for normal accumulation of SMU1 (PubMed:24945353). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Nucleus, nucleoplasm. Chromosome. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle pole. Note=Predominantly present throughout the nucleoplasm during prometaphase, metaphase and anaphase. Is also detected in nuclear foci that are not identical with Cajal bodies Starts to accumulate at chromosomes during telophase, and is nearly exclusively associated with chromosomes in newly divided cells (PubMed:24252166). Colocalizes with MAD1L1 at mitotic spindle poles during metaphase and anaphase (PubMed:22351768) |

Background
IK was identified by its RED repeat, a stretch of repeated arginine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid residues. The protein localizes to discrete dots within the nucleus, excluding the nucleolus. Its function is unknown.
