Biological function summary
INCENP functions within the CPC which includes the kinase Aurora B Survivin and Borealin. This complex facilitates proper chromosomal alignment and segregation during mitosis. INCENP links Aurora B kinase activity to the centromere essential for correct chromosome bi-orientation and tension sensing. As a result INCENP stabilizes the architecture of the mitotic spindle ensuring successful cell cycle completion. This process is vital for maintaining genomic stability in proliferating cells.
Pathways
INCENP participates in the signaling cascades that control mitosis and cellular division. It is involved in the spindle assembly checkpoint pathway ensuring that cells do not progress through mitosis with misaligned chromosomes. INCENP interacts closely with proteins such as Aurora B and Survivin within this checkpoint mechanism. These interactions ensure that the cell cycle does not proceed until all chromosomes are correctly attached to the spindle apparatus thereby safeguarding against aneuploidy.
General info
Function
Component of the chromosomal passenger complex (CPC), a complex that acts as a key regulator of mitosis. The CPC complex has essential functions at the centromere in ensuring correct chromosome alignment and segregation and is required for chromatin-induced microtubule stabilization and spindle assembly. Acts as a scaffold regulating CPC localization and activity. The C-terminus associates with AURKB or AURKC, the N-terminus associated with BIRC5/survivin and CDCA8/borealin tethers the CPC to the inner centromere, and the microtubule binding activity within the central SAH domain directs AURKB/C toward substrates near microtubules (PubMed : 12925766, PubMed : 15316025, PubMed : 27332895). The flexibility of the SAH domain is proposed to allow AURKB/C to follow substrates on dynamic microtubules while ensuring CPC docking to static chromatin (By similarity). Activates AURKB and AURKC (PubMed : 27332895). Required for localization of CBX5 to mitotic centromeres (PubMed : 21346195). Controls the kinetochore localization of BUB1 (PubMed : 16760428).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the INCENP family.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylation by AURKB or AURKC at its C-terminal part is important for AURKB or AURKC activation by INCENP.
