About Aurkb

Chromosome 11: 68,936,473-68,942,490 forward strand.GRCm39:CM001004.3

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 217 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 23 phenotypes. Broad expression in thymus adult (RPKM 36.3), liver E14.5 (RPKM 33.6) and 19 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the Aurora Kinase subfamily of serine/threonine kinases. The genes encoding the other two members of this subfamily are located on chromosomes 2 and 7. These kinases participate in the regulation of alignment and segregation of chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis through association with microtubules. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
