Description
Description
The Chromosomal Passenger Complex plays several key roles in mitosis and meiosis including kinetochore-microtubule attachment, spindle assembly and cytokinesis. (Adapted from FBrf0216422 and FBrf0202888).
Notes on Group

D.mel encodes two Borealin paralogs, borr and aust, which function in mitosis and meiosis, respectively (FBrf0202888).
