Description | The chromosomal passenger complex of Aurora B kinase, INCENP, and Survivin has essential regulatory roles at centromeres and the central spindle in mitosis. Cell division cycle-associated protein 8, also known as Borealin, is also a member of the complex. Approximately half of Aurora B in mitotic cells is complexed with INCENP, Borealin, and Survivin [ ]. Depletion of Borealin by RNA interference delays mitotic progression and results in kinetochore-spindle mis-attachments and an increase in bipolar spindles associated with ectopic asters []. | Name | Cell division protein borealin |
