YPEL5(Protein yippee-like 5) belongs to the yippee family and is involved in a certain cell division-related function. During cell cycle, YPEL5 protein is detected at different subcellular localizations; at interphase, it is located in the nucleus and centrosome, then it changes location sequentially to spindle poles, mitotic spindle, and spindle midzone during mitosis, and finally transferrs to midbody at cytokinesis(PMID:20580816).
