Aurora B

Aurora B is a protein that plays a critical role in cell division, ensuring that chromosomes are accurately distributed to each new cell. It is part of a larger complex called the chromosomal passenger complex, which moves within the cell during division to monitor and correct mistakes. Aurora B helps control the structure of chromosomes and the physical separation of genetic material, preventing errors that could lead to cell dysfunction or disease. Its proper functioning is essential for healthy growth and development, and it is also a target for cancer treatments due to its role in cell proliferation.
