| Standard Name | Cik1p 1 |
|---|---|
| Systematic Name | Ymr198wp |
| ORF Classification | Verified |
| Description | Kinesin-associated protein; required for both karyogamy and mitotic spindle organization, interacts stably and specifically with Kar3p and may function to target this kinesin to a specific cellular role; CIK1 has a paralog, VIK1, that arose from the whole genome duplication (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) |
