Description
Jumping translocation breakpoint, also known as JTB, is required for normal cytokinesis during mitosis. This protein plays a role in the regulation of cell proliferation. This protein may be a component of the chromosomal passenger complex (CPC), a complex that acts as a key regulator of mitosis. The CPC complex has essential functions at the centromere in ensuring correct chromosome alignment and segregation and is required for chromatin-induced microtubule stabilization and spindle assembly. It lnhibits apoptosis induced by TGFB1. Overexpression induces swelling of mitochondria and reduces mitochondrial membrane potential. Recombinant human JTB protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques
