Abstract

Aladin is a WD-repeat protein that regulates Aurora A localization to ensure robust mitotic spindle formation [ 1 ]. Mutations in the Aladin gene cause Achalasia-addisonianism-alacrima syndrome (AAAS), an autosomal recessive disorder characterised by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-resistant adrenal failure, achalasia of the esophageal cardia and alacrima [ 2 ].
