The nucleoporin ALADIN regulates Aurora A localization to ensure robust mitotic spindle formation
Sara Carvalhal,Susana A. Ribeiro,Susana A. Ribeiro,Miguel Arocena,Taciana Kasciukovic,Achim Temme,Katrin Koehler,Angela Huebner,Eric R. Griffis,Eric R. Griffis +9 more
TL;DR: The nucleoporin ALADIN, which is mutated in patients with triple A syndrome, is necessary for proper spindle formation and its relocalization leads to a redistribution of specific spindle assembly factors that make spindles less stable and slows their formation.

ALADIN is Required for the Production of Fertile Mouse Oocytes.
Sara Carvalhal,Michelle Stevense,Katrin Koehler,Ronald Naumann,Angela Huebner,Rolf Jessberger,Eric R. Griffis +6 more
TL;DR: Overall, it is found that ALADIN is critical for oocyte maturation and appears to be far more essential for this process than for somatic cell divisions.
