Scientists unveil light-induced clustering of Aurora A

Original: Light-induced clustering of Aurora A (IMAGE)

A new research release features an image showing light-induced clustering of Aurora A, a protein kinase involved in cell division. The technique uses light to trigger the protein to cluster, allowing researchers to study its behaviour with greater precision. Aurora A is of wide interest in biology because of its role in mitosis and links to cancer research.

Why now: Newly published research into a cancer-relevant protein using optogenetic clustering is drawing attention from the biology community.
