Abstract excerpt
Survivin operates in a complex with aurora B kinase and is phosphorylated by it on threonine 117 in vitro. Here we ask whether phosphorylation of survivin by aurora B kinase regulates its function during mitosis in vivo. Using a phospho-specific antibody we first establish that survivin is phosphorylated at T117 during mitosis and is present at the midbody during cytokinesis. Next we use two independent RNAi...
