== Function ==
[[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/AURKA_HUMAN AURKA_HUMAN]] Mitotic serine/threonine kinases that contributes to the regulation of cell cycle progression. Associates with the centrosome and the spindle microtubules during mitosis and plays a critical role in various mitotic events including the establishment of mitotic spindle, centrosome duplication, centrosome separation as well as maturation, chromosomal alignment, spindle assembly checkpoint, and cytokinesis. Required for initial activation of CDK1 at centrosomes. Phosphorylates numerous target proteins, including ARHGEF2, BORA, BRCA1, CDC25B, DLGP5, HDAC6, KIF2A, LATS2, NDEL1, PARD3, PPP1R2, PLK1, RASSF1, TACC3, p53/TP53 and TPX2. Regulates KIF2A tubulin depolymerase activity. Required for normal axon formation. Plays a role in microtubule remodeling during neurite extension. Important for microtubule formation and/or stabilization. Also acts as a key regulatory component of the p53/TP53 pathway, and particularly the checkpoint-response pathways critical for oncogenic transformation of cells, by phosphorylating and stabilizing p53/TP53. Phosphorylates its own inhibitors, the protein phosphatase type 1 (PP1) isoforms, to inhibit their activity. Necessary for proper cilia disassembly prior to mitosis.<ref>PMID:9606188</ref> <ref>PMID:11039908</ref> <ref>PMID:11551964</ref> <ref>PMID:12390251</ref> <ref>PMID:13678582</ref> <ref>PMID:14523000</ref> <ref>PMID:15147269</ref> <ref>PMID:14990569</ref> <ref>PMID:15128871</ref> <ref>PMID:14702041</ref> <ref>PMID:15987997</ref> <ref>PMID:18056443</ref> <ref>PMID:17604723</ref> <ref>PMID:17360485</ref> <ref>PMID:18615013</ref> <ref>PMID:19812038</ref> <ref>PMID:19351716</ref> <ref>PMID:19668197</ref> <ref>PMID:19357306</ref> <ref>PMID:20643351</ref> <ref>PMID:17125279</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Most protein kinases share a DFG (Asp-Phe-Gly) motif in the ATP site which can assume two distinct conformations, the active DFG-in and the inactive DFG-out states. Small molecule inhibitors able to induce the DFG-out state have received considerable attention in kinase drug discovery. Using a typical DFG-in inhibitor scaffold of Aurora A, a kinase involved in the regulation of cell division, we found that halogen and nitrile substituents directed at the N-terminally flanking residue Ala273 induced global conformational changes in the enzyme, leading to DFG-out inhibitors that are among the most potent Aurora A inhibitors reported to date. The data suggest an unprecedented mechanism of action, in which induced-dipole forces along the Ala273 side chain alter the charge distribution of the DFG backbone, allowing the DFG to unwind. As the ADFG sequence and three-dimensional structure is highly conserved, DFG-out inhibitors of other kinases may be designed by specifically targeting the flanking alanine residue with electric dipoles.

A novel mechanism by which small molecule inhibitors induce the DFG flip in Aurora A.,Martin MP, Zhu JY, Lawrence H, Pireddu R, Luo Y, Alam R, Ozcan S, Sebti SM, Lawrence NJ, Schonbrunn E ACS Chem Biol. 2012 Jan 16. PMID:22248356<ref>PMID:22248356</ref>
