Borealin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDCA8 gene.[5][6][7]

Function

[edit]

CDCA8 is a component of a chromosomal passenger complex required for stability of the bipolar mitotic spindle.[7][8]

Interactions

[edit]

CDCA8 has been shown to interact with INCENP,[8] Survivin[6][8] and Aurora B kinase.[6][8]
