Aurora Kinase A Drives MTOC Biogenesis but Does Not Trigger Resumption of Meiosis in Mouse Oocytes Matured In Vivo1
27 Jul 2012
Abstract excerpt
Aurora kinase A (AURKA) is an important mitotic kinase involved in the G2/M transition, centrosome maturation and separation, and spindle formation in somatic cells. We used transgenic models that specifically overexpress in mouse oocytes either wild-type (WT-AURKA) or a catalytically inactive (kinase-dead) (KD-AURKA) AURKA to gain new insights regarding the role of AURKA during oocyte maturation. AURKA...
