Facts about Kinesin-like protein KIF20B.
Plays a role in the regulation of neuronal polarization by mediating the transport of specific cargos. Participates in the mobilization of SHTN1 and in the accumulation of PIP3 in the growth cone of primary hippocampal neurons at a tubulin and actin-dependent method.

Localizes mainly in the nucleus during interphase although it is also detected in the cytoplasm without clear association with microtubules (PubMed:12740395). Localized to the central spindle during cytokinetic furrowing and with the midbody during abscission (PubMed:12740395, PubMed:17409436). A 2-3 fold expression increase is seen as cells pr
