Protein Phosphatase 2A (PP2A) Regulates EG5 to Control Mitotic Progression

Abstract EG5 (KIF11) is a member of the kinesin-like protein family involved in centrosome separation and bipolar spindle formation. When a cell enters mitosis, CDK1 phosphorylates EG5 at Thr926 and promotes EG5 localization on the mitotic spindle which drives bipolar spindle formation. EG5 provides...
