Boursin, a sea urchin bimC kinesin protein, plays a role in anaphase and cytokinesis.

Journal of cell science - 1 Feb 2001

Touïtou I, Lhomond G, Prulière G

Abstract excerpt

We have isolated and characterized Boursin, a kinesin-related protein of the bimC family, from Paracentrotus lividus sea urchin eggs. Boursin is expressed at high levels in eggs and embryos during early cleavage stages. Boursin was found to be associated with different parts of the mitotic spindle from early prophase to telophase. Expression of a form of the protein predicted to act as a dominant negative mutant...
