Summary: Predicted to enable protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Acts upstream of or within chromosome segregation; cytoskeleton-dependent cytokinesis; and microtubule cytoskeleton organization. Predicted to be located in chromosome, centromeric region; cytoplasm; and cytoskeleton. Predicted to be part of chromosome passenger complex. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including kinetochore; microtubule cytoskeleton; and midbody. Is expressed in several structures, including blastomere; midbrain hindbrain boundary; nervous system; and proliferative region. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spermatogenic failure 5. Orthologous to several human genes including AURKB (aurora kinase B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
