Description
Predicted to have histone serine kinase activity. Involved in mitotic cell cycle. Predicted to localize to condensed nuclear chromosome, centromeric region and microtubule cytoskeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal cancer; ovarian cancer; and uterine cancer. Is expressed in several structures, including caudal fin; immature eye; nervous system; somite; and spinal cord neural tube. Orthologous to human AURKA (aurora kinase A).
