A model for the KIBRA-Aurora-Lats2 axis in mitosis. In mitosis, KIBRA, as an Aurora-A interacting partner, regulates Aurora-A kinase activity. Meanwhile, activated Aurora-A phosphorylates KIBRA Ser539, which in turn is dephosphorylated by PP1 during mitotic exit. KIBRA contributes to the phosphorylation of Lats2 on Ser83 by Aurora-A kinase. Lats2 reduces the phosphorylation of KIBRA Ser539, probably through regulating PP1 activity. Arrows and bars indicate positive and negative regulations, respectively.
