compound introduction
Purity:>90%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining. Description: Aurora-B, previously known as AIM-1, is a conserved eukaryotic mitotic protein kinase. In mammals, this kinase plays an essential role in chromosomal segregation processes, including chromosome condensation, alignment, control of spindle checkpoints, chromosome segregation, and cytokinesis. Aurora-B is overexpressed in various cancer cells, suggesting that the kinase activity perturbs chromosomal segregation processes. Its forced overexpression induces chromosomal number instability and progressive tumorigenicity in rodent cells in vitro and in vivo.
