CENPV

protein-coding

centromere protein V

Gene summary

Predicted to enable carbon-sulfur lyase activity; metal ion binding activity; and microtubule binding activity. Involved in pericentric heterochromatin formation; positive regulation of cytokinesis; and regulation of chromosome organization. Acts upstream of or within ameboidal-type cell migration. Located in kinetochore; nucleus; and spindle midzone. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2026]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_181716.3. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.
