CDCA8
Introduction
Borealin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDCA8 gene.[1][2][3]
Function
Function
CDCA8 is a component of a chromosomal passenger complex required for stability of the bipolar mitotic spindle.[3][4]
Interactions
Interactions
CDCA8 has been shown to interact with INCENP,[4] Survivin[2][4] and Aurora B kinase.[2][4]
