[BUB1 Budding Uninhibited by Benzimidazoles 1 Homolog (Yeast), encoded by the human BUB1 gene, is a 120-kD serine/threonine protein kinase. This protein monitors the attachment of chromosomes to spindle poles and may be a component of the mitotic checkpoint that delays anaphase until all chromosomes are properly attached to the mitotic spindle. As part of a common complex in checkpoint-activated cells, Bub1 monitors different spindle events compared to BubR1 and integrates different signals into a single signal that is then relayed to the downstream cell cycle machinery. It interacts with Bub3, CENP-F, CENP-E and mitosin. The BUB1 gene is highly expressed in thymus followed by spleen. Defects in Bub1 are associated with tumor formation.
