Protein
Serine/threonine-protein kinase Aurora-2
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
Phosphorylates specifically 'Ser-10' of histone H3 in vitro. Associates with cytoskeletal structures that are necessary for cytokinesis and with the microtubule spindle. Might colocalize with gamma-tubulin and function in microtubule organizing centers (MTOCs).
Similarity
Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family. Aurora subfamily.
