Comments On Page edit

This article could be expanded. First, there are no citations in the article. I plan on adding a little bit more information to this article, including citations. I will look around for more information, such as data about the protein such as molecular weight and biochemical features. I will look to see if I can add the structure of this protein to this article. KIF2 appears to be linked to KIF2A so I will investigate the link and see if I can link these two articles together. I might add the history of how this protein was discovered, and go explore what are some of its function.

A couple of potential good sources I found is:

Alberts B, Johnson A, Lewis J, et al. Molecular Biology of the Cell. 4th edition. New York: Garland Science; 2002. Mitosis. Available from: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK26934/

Duro E, Marston AL. From equator to pole: splitting chromosomes in mitosis and meiosis. Genes & Development. 2015;29(2):109-122. doi:10.1101/gad.255554.114.

I am a student working on this project for a class. If you have helpful advice to share with me I would be glad to see them! Tomhoang18 (talk) 23:24, 20 March 2017 (UTC)Reply


Feedback on Edits edit

The editing of this page overall looks good, though there are some issues with formatting. It appears that there is one subheading (catastrophin) under which all further subheadings have been placed. I have changed this so that there are multiple subheadings. A history of discovery would be a great addition to this page.
