Abstract excerpt
The chromosomal passenger protein aurora kinases have been implicated in regulating chromosome segregation and cell division. Three aurora kinase homologues were identified (TbAUK1, -2 and -3) in the Trypanosome Genomic Data Base, and their expressions in the procyclic form of Trypanosoma brucei were knocked down individually by using the RNA interference technique. Only a knockdown of TbAUK1 arrested the cells...
