BUB1B BUB1 mitotic checkpoint serine/threonine kinase B

Gene ID: 701, updated on 22-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: MVA1; SSK1; BUBR1; Bub1A; MAD3L; hBUBR1; BUB1beta

Summary

This gene encodes a kinase involved in spindle checkpoint function. The protein has been localized to the kinetochore and plays a role in the inhibition of the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C), delaying the onset of anaphase and ensuring proper chromosome segregation. Impaired spindle checkpoint function has been found in many forms of cancer. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
