Borealin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDCA8 gene.

Gene data

CDCA8
Name
cell division cycle associated 8
Type
protein-coding
Aliases
BOR, BOREALIN, DasraB, MESRGP

This gene encodes a component of the chromosomal passenger complex. This complex is an essential regulator of mitosis and cell division. This protein is cell-cycle regulated and is required for chromatin-induced microtubule stabilization and spindle formation. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudgenes of this gene are found on chromosomes 7, 8 and 16. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2013].
