- KIF18A a member of the kinin-8 family, is an enzyme that integrates microtubule motility and depolymerization activity. It reversibly binds to microtubules, influencing anchorid microtubule dynamics to control proper chromosome positioning and spindle tension, playing a key role in cell division.
