Kinetochore protein Nuf2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NUF2 gene.This gene encodes a protein that is highly similar to yeast Nuf2 a component of a conserved protein complex associated with the centromere. Yeast Nuf2 disappears from the centromere during meiotic prophase when centromeres lose their connection to the spindle pole body and plays a regulatory role in chromosome segregation.
