Borealin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CDCA8 gene.^[5][6][7]

Function

CDCA8 is a component of a chromosomal passenger complex required for stability of the bipolar mitotic spindle.^[7][8]

Interactions

CDCA8 has been shown to interact with INCENP,^[8] Survivin^[6][8] and Aurora B kinase.^[6][8]
