AURKB

AURKB, a key player in the aurora kinase family, is encoded by our genes and plays a crucial role in the cell division process. It's responsible for phosphorylating various proteins, which helps regulate the alignment of chromosomes, the assembly of the spindle, and ensures the cell cycle progresses correctly. This mechanism is vital for the precise and orderly division of cells. On the biological front, irregularities in AURKB's expression are closely tied to the development of various cancers, making it a key area of interest in cancer research. As such, AURKB is being explored as a potential therapeutic target for developing new strategies against cancer. Understanding how AURKB is regulated and how its impact on cell division contributes to cancer development is crucial for advancing cancer treatments.
