Gene Description

AURKA (Aurora kinase A) is a mitotic serine/threonine kinase concentrated at centrosomes and spindle-pole microtubules from late G2 to anaphase. Activated by autophosphorylation in its activation loop and by cofactors such as TPX2, BORA and Ajuba, it drives centrosome maturation and separation, bipolar spindle assembly, and mitotic entry. Among other routes, it initiates CDK1 activation at centrosomes and activates PLK1. It phosphorylates many substrates, including TPX2, TACC3, NDEL1, CDC25B, BRCA1, p53 and HURP. Outside mitosis it acts at the ciliary basal body, where NEDD9-activated AURKA phosphorylates HDAC6 to disassemble the primary cilium, and it phosphorylates RALA to promote mitotic mitochondrial fission. AURKA is frequently amplified and overexpressed in cancers.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Meiotic spindle organization (IEA). In mouse oocytes, AURKA inhibition with MLN8237 shortens the meiotic spindle and disrupts acentriolar MTOC organization. AURKA activity is therefore needed for meiotic spindle-pole focusing. This is mammalian ortholog evidence, and the mitotic roles remain the core ones, so it is kept as non-core.
Reason: [PMID:31895686 "Taken together, our current data reveal a critical role for AURKA activity in regulating microtubule dynamics, spindle pole focusing, and the maintenance of oocyte aMTOC organization at assembled meiotic spindles."] [PMID:31895686 "MI oocytes treated with MLN8237 showed similar alterations, exhibiting significantly shorter spindles with highly focused poles, as well as loss of aMTOC organization with bright CEP215 and increased chromosome misalignment (Supplemental Fig. 1)."]

Summary: Protein binding (IPI) with MYCN (N-Myc). The AURKA catalytic domain binds a site flanking Myc Box I of N-Myc, independently of phosphorylation.

  • PMID:13678582
    We found that initial activation of Aurora-A in late G2 phase of the cell cycle is essential for recruitment of the cyclin B1-Cdk1 complex to centrosomes, where it becomes activated and commits cells to mitosis.
  • PMID:18566290
    Bora accumulates in the G2 phase and promotes Aur-A-mediated activation of Polo-like kinase 1 (Plk1), leading to the activation of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 and mitotic entry.
  • PMID:37083534
    Here, we identified a conserved region of CEP192, the major cofactor of AURKA, that mediates the interaction with AURKA.

At the ciliary basal body, NEDD9-activated AURKA phosphorylates HDAC6 to drive primary cilium disassembly.

    Here, we show that interactions between the prometastatic scaffolding protein HEF1/Cas-L/NEDD9 and the oncogenic Aurora A (AurA) kinase at the basal body of cilia causes phosphorylation and activation of HDAC6, a tubulin deacetylase, promoting ciliary disassembly.

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Which AURKA functions depend on its catalytic activity and which on scaffolding (for example N-Myc stabilization, or nuclear hnRNP K-dependent MYC transactivation), and are the latter separable in cells?

Q: How do the TPX2 and CEP192 activation routes divide AURKA activity between the spindle and the centrosome?

Q: Does AURKA have a direct role in human oocyte meiotic spindle assembly comparable to that shown in mouse oocytes?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Compare kinase-dead and analog-sensitive AURKA alleles in human cells for centrosome, spindle, cilium-disassembly and N-Myc-stabilization phenotypes.

Experiment: Express AURKA variants that cannot bind TPX2 or CEP192 to separate the spindle and centrosomal activation pools.
