NCAPG( Human )
non-SMC condensin I complex subunit G
Alias
CAPG|CHCG|NY-MEL-3|YCG1
This gene encodes a subunit of the condensin complex, which is responsible for the condensation and stabilization of chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis. Phosphorylation of the encoded protein activates the condensin complex. There are pseudogenes for this gene on chromosomes 8 and 15. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
