{"symbol":"CETN2","synonyms":["CALT","CEN2"],"name":"centrin, EF-hand protein, 2","description":" Caltractin belongs to a family of calcium-binding proteins and is a structural component of the centrosome.  The high level of conservation from algae to humans and its association with the centrosome suggested that caltractin plays a fundamental role in the structure and function of the microtubule-organizing center, possibly required for the proper duplication and segregation of the centrosome.
