Abstract excerpt
Here we provide evidence in support of an inherent role for Arpc1b, a component of the Arp2/3 complex, in regulation of mitosis and demonstrate that its depletion inhibits Aurora A activation at the centrosome and impairs the ability of mammalian cells to enter mitosis. We discovered that Arpc1b colocalizes with gamma-tubulin at centrosomes and stimulates Aurora A activity. Aurora A phosphorylates Arpc1b on...
