  • Title: The chromosomal passenger complex: guiding Aurora-B through mitosis.
    Author: Vader G, Medema RH, Lens SM.
    Journal: J Cell Biol; 2006 Jun 19; 173(6):833-7. PubMed ID: 16769825.
    Abstract:
    During mitosis, the chromosomal passenger complex (CPC) orchestrates highly different processes, such as chromosome alignment, histone modification, and cytokinesis. Proper and timely localization of this complex is the key to precise control over the enzymatic core of the CPC, the Aurora-B kinase. We discuss the molecular mechanisms by which the CPC members direct the dynamic localization of the complex throughout cell division. Also, we summarize posttranslational modifications that occur on the CPC and discuss their roles in regulating localization and function of this mitotic complex.
