Centromere protein F is a

cilia.[8][9]

Function

CENPF is part of the

intercellular bridge. It is thought to be subsequently degraded. Mutations in CENPF lead to impaired cell division during early development. Mitosis has been found to take longer when the gene is mutated.[8][9]

Microtubules are protein structures that are part of the

cell signalling to trigger migration, division or differentiation. Mutations in CENPF disrupt this ability to form cilia; cilia have been found to be fewer in number and shorter when the gene is mutated.[8][10]

CENPF is thought to form either a

heterodimer
.

Clinical significance

Mutations in both copies of CENPF cause

Autoantibodies against CENPF have been found in patients with cancer or graft-versus-host disease.[7]
