Bypassing anaphase by fission yeast cut9 mutation: requirement of cut9+ to initiate anaphase. [PDF]
A novel anaphase block phenotype was found in fission yeast temperature-sensitive cut9 mutants. Cells enter mitosis with chromosome condensation and short spindle formation, then block anaphase, but continue to progress into postanaphase events such as degradation of the spindle, reformation of the postanaphase cytoplasmic microtubule arrays, septation,

Despite their varied appearances, all mitotic spindles have a similar architecture: they are organized as two half spindles, and the microtubules in each half spindle are of the same polarity, with many of the plus ends of the microtubules that grow out from the poles interacting with chromosomes or the microtubules of the other half spindle.

The perpetual movements of anaphase [PDF]
One of the most extraordinary events in the lifetime of a cell is the coordinated separation of sister chromatids during cell division. This is truly the essence of the entire mitotic process and the reason for the most profound morphological changes in cytoskeleton and nuclear organization that a cell may ever experience.

Dynein localization and pronuclear movement in the C. elegans zygote
Abstract Centrosomes serve as a site for microtubule nucleation and these microtubules will grow and interact with the motor protein dynein at the cortex. The position of the centrosomes determines where the mitotic spindle will develop across all cell types.

Abstract Chromosomal instability is a common feature in malignant tumors. Previous studies have indicated that inactivation of the classical tumor suppressor genes RB1, CDKN2A, and TP53 may contribute to chromosomal aberrations in cancer by disrupting different aspects of the cell cycle and DNA damage checkpoint machinery.

Chromosome segregation requires both the separation of sister chromatids and the sustained condensation of chromatids during anaphase. In yeast cells, cohesin is not only required for sister chromatid cohesion but also plays a major role determining the ...

The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) prevents anaphase onset in response to chromosome attachment defects, and SAC silencing is essential for anaphase onset. Following anaphase onset, activated Cdc14 phosphatase dephosphorylates the substrates of cyclin-

Gut microbiota‐stem cell niche crosstalk: A new territory for maintaining intestinal homeostasis
Intestinal stem cells (ISCs) are protected by their niche and are regulated by Wnt, bone morphogenetic protein, and Notch. ISCs and their relationship with intestinal microbiota provide a feasible pathway to alleviate intestinal diseases. Diverse bacteria‐related postbiotics regulate ISCs and maintain their homeostasis.

Rif1 Regulates the Fate of DNA Entanglements during Mitosis
Clearance of entangled DNA from the anaphase mid-region must accurately proceed in order for chromosomes to segregate with high fidelity. Loss of Taz1 (fission yeast ortholog of human TRF1/TRF2) leads to stalled telomeric replication forks that trigger ...

Ubc1 turnover contributes to the spindle assembly checkpoint in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The spindle assembly checkpoint protects the integrity of the genome by ensuring that chromosomes are properly attached to the mitotic spindle before they are segregated during anaphase.
