Abstract:
Ten year after its discovery Survivin has gained a strategic place within the chromosomal passenger complex. Whereas INCENP, Borealin and Aurora B are fully immobile in the complex, Survivin is mobile on centromere. Its mobility is regulated both by phosphorylation and ubiquitination. Survivin is a dynamic messenger that senses the central spindle tension and participates to the control of the mitotic chekpoint. In this review, we have detailed the multiple mitotic activities of Survivin and discussed them in light of the recent reported crystallographic data.

Drift Current:
The drift of charge carriers is started by an external electric field (E). Charged particles, such as electrons and holes, experience an acceleration between collisions with lattice atoms. For electrons, this results in a drift velocity (vd) given by:
