The function of ENSG00000121621 (KIF18A, kinesin family member 18A) is as follows. Microtubule-depolymerizing kinesin which plays a role in chromosome congression by reducing the amplitude of preanaphase oscillations and slowing poleward movement during anaphase, thus suppressing chromosome movements. May stabilize the CENPE-BUB1B complex at the kinetochores during early mitosis and maintains CENPE levels at kinetochores during chromosome congression. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17346968, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18267093, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18513970, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19625775}.
