MeSH definition : An apoptosis inhibitory protein that contains a single baculoviral IAP repeat (BIR)
domain. It associates with MICROTUBULES and functions to regulate cell proliferation
as a component of the chromosome passage protein complex (CPC), performing essential
roles for localization of the complex, chromosome alignment, segregation during MITOSIS
and CYTOKINESIS, and assembly of the MITOTIC SPINDLE. It is expressed by fetal kidney
and liver cells and highly expressed in ADENOCARCINOMA and high-grade LYMPHOMA.;
MeSH synonym : BIRC5 Protein; Baculoviral IAP Repeat-containing Protein 5; Baculoviral IAP Repeat containing Protein 5;
