Figure Lengend Snippet: GFP:INCENP binds to GST-Cep55 through Mklp2. (A) GFP-Trap kinase assay from BE cell extracts using histone H3 as substrate. GFP-associated histone H3-Ser10 phosphorylation (pH3-Ser10), immunoprecipitated Aurora B, and GFP were analyzed by Western blotting. Histone H3 was analyzed by Ponceau staining. 300 nM VX-680 was added to the kinase reaction to inhibit Aurora B catalytic activity.
