Protein function (UniProt)

Mitotic checkpoint serine/threonine-protein kinase BUB1 beta

Component of the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC), which inhibits APC/C and delays chromosome segregation until all chromosomes are properly attached to the mitotic spindle (PubMed:27509861). The MCC, which consists of CDC20, MAD2L1/MAD2, BUB1B/BUBR1 and BUB3, is a key player of the spindle assembly checkpoint (PubMed:11702782, PubMed:14706340, PubMed:15020684, PubMed:27509861). The MCC-bound APC/C complex is inactive and this delays the metaphase/anaphase transition (PubMed:10477750, PubMed:27509861). When the spindle assembly checkpoint is silenced, the MCC-APC/C complex recruits the E2 enzyme UBCH10 and triggers the auto-ubiquitination of CDC20 in the MCC, thereby reactivating APC/C for transition into anaphase (PubMed:27509861). MCC also monitors kinetochore activities that depend on the kinetochore motor CENPE (PubMed:15020684). Required for kinetochore localization of CENPE (PubMed:15020684). Negatively regulates PLK1 activity in interphase cells and suppresses centrosome amplification (PubMed:19503101). May play a role for tumor suppression (By similarity)
