Function

DPF3 depletion causes kinetochore fiber (K-fiber) instability, less stable kinetochore鈥搈icrotubule (KT鈥揗T) attachment and defects in chromosome alignment at the metaphase plate. DPF3 localized at the basal body of the primary cilium in quiescent vertebrate cells. Depletion of DPF3 dramatically arrested primary ciliogenesis at the initial step of axoneme extension(38661008).
