| Function |
Essential component of the mitotic checkpoint, which prevents cells from prematurely exiting mitosis. Required for the assembly of the dynein-dynactin and MAD1-MAD2 complexes onto kinetochores. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11146660, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11590237, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15824131}.

| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Chromosome, centromere, kinetochore. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle. Note=Dynamic pattern of localization during the cell cycle. At interphase, uniformly distributed throughout the cytoplasm and nucleus. By prophase and until late stages of prometaphase, a fraction of the total pool is concentrated at kinetochores. By metaphase, detected at kinetochores, along spindle fibers and most prominently at the poles. By late anaphase until the end of telophase, no longer detectable on kinetochores or along spindle fibers, but still present at the spindle poles.

| Tissue Specificity |
High expression in testis.
