Immunogen
A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence in the middle region of mouse Aurora A(109-125 aa QKTEDTKKRQWTLEDFD), different from the related rat sequence by one amino acid.
Specificity
Detected in embryonic neurons in dorsal root ganglia and brain cortex (at protein level). Highly expressed in testis, in about one third of the seminiferous tubules. Expression is restricted to specific spermatocytes nearing completion of prophase, with levels falling off on transition to elongated spermatids. Highly expressed in the ovary, expression in the oocyte starts around the transition to large growing follicle. Abundant expression is seen in the proliferating granulosa and thecal cells of the growing follicle, and in the young corpus luteum. Very weakly expressed in spleen and intestine. .
