NodA is an N-acyltransferase that catalyzes the addition of a fatty acyl chain.

NodB is a chitin-oligosaccharide deacetylase that removes the acetyl group from the terminal nonreducing sugar.

NodC is a chitin-oligosaccharide synthase that links N-acetyl-D-glucosamine monomers.

Centralspindlin is a heterotetramer composed of two copies of the kinesin-6 motor protein MKLP1 and a dimer of a Rho GAP

MKLP1 is inhibited by 14-3-3 to ensures that the spindle midzone microtubules do not compact until the end of anaphase

During anaphase, when cyclin B-CDK1 activity is extinguished but Aurora and Polo kinases are still active, Aurora B phosphorylates MKLP1 and displaces the 14-3-3, allowing compact the spindle midzone.

At the same time, Plk1 phosphorylates the Rho-GAP component, to form an active Centralspindlin-Ect2 complex.

Centralspindlin-Ect2 complex catalyzes activation of RhoA, leading to cleavage furrow formation and division of the cytoplasm to form two completely separate cells.
