Summary: Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint signaling; septin cytoskeleton organization; and sister chromatid segregation. Located in several cellular components, including kinetochore; nucleus; and spindle midzone. Part of chromosome passenger complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in prostate cancer and transitional cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human BIRC5 (baculoviral IAP repeat containing 5).

What's a GeneRIF?

SUMOylation stabilizes sister kinetochore biorientation to allow timely anaphase.
Title: SUMOylation stabilizes sister kinetochore biorientation to allow timely anaphase.
Results show that Bir1 is needed to permit efficient chromosome biorientation.
Title: Efficient chromosome biorientation and the tension checkpoint in Saccharomyces cerevisiae both require Bir1.
The establishment of tension removes Ipl1, Bir1, and Sli15, and their kinetochore detachment activity, from the vicinity of kinetochores and allows cells to proceed through the tension checkpoint.
Title: Bir1 is required for the tension checkpoint.
The interaction between Bir1p and Sli15p is specifically involved in regulating septin dynamics during anaphase.
Title: A Bir1p Sli15p kinetochore passenger complex regulates septin organization during anaphase.
Phosphorylation of the middle region of Bir1 is required to bring Ndc10 to the spindle at anaphase, which is required for full spindle elongation.
Title: Phosphorylation of the chromosomal passenger protein Bir1 is required for localization of Ndc10 to the spindle during anaphase and full spindle elongation.
Using an in vitro approach based on the sequence-specific budding yeast centromere, a complex of the chromosomal passenger proteins Bir1 and Sli15 (Survivin and INCENP) that links centromeres to microtubules was identified.
Title: A Bir1-Sli15 complex connects centromeres to microtubules and is required to sense kinetochore tension.
Data show that Bir1p is a substrate for Nma111p, which is the homologue of the human pro-apoptotic serine protease Omi/HtrA2 and which is known to mediate apoptosis in yeast.
Title: The inhibitor-of-apoptosis protein Bir1p protects against apoptosis in S. cerevisiae and is a substrate for the yeast homologue of Omi/HtrA2.
