Depletion or cleavage of cohesin during anaphase differentially affects chromatin structure and segregation

open access: yeseLife, 2022
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 ...

Rif1 Regulates the Fate of DNA Entanglements during Mitosis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
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

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2021
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.

Polo-like kinase controls vertebrate spindle elongation and cytokinesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2007
During cell division, chromosome segregation must be coordinated with cell cleavage so that cytokinesis occurs after chromosomes have been safely distributed to each spindle pole.

Mitotic chromosome alignment ensures mitotic fidelity by promoting interchromosomal compaction during anaphase

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2019
Chromosome alignment at the equator of the mitotic spindle is a highly conserved step during cell division; however, its importance to genomic stability and cellular fitness is not understood.

Anaphase B Precedes Anaphase A in the Mouse Egg [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2012
Segregation of chromosomes at the time of cell division is achieved by the microtubules and associated molecules of the spindle. Chromosomes attach to kinetochore microtubules (kMTs), which extend from the spindle pole region to kinetochores assembled upon centromeric DNA.

Force-generating mechanisms of anaphase in human cells

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2019
What forces drive chromosome segregation remains one of the most challenging questions in cell division. Even though the duration of anaphase is short, it is of utmost importance for genome fidelity that no mistakes are made.

Testing of mitosis and meiosis in female and male gametes

open access: yesАндрология и генитальная хирургия, 2017
Method of quantitative evaluation of the immature germ cells, their pathology in mitosis and meiosis (in semen, embryo and fetal ovaries, of gonad biopsies or fragments of sectioned material) is informative method and should be introduced into the ...

Visualizing the complex functions and mechanisms of the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C)

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2017
The anaphase promoting complex or cyclosome (APC/C) is a large multi-subunit E3 ubiquitin ligase that orchestrates cell cycle progression by mediating the degradation of important cell cycle regulators.

Keeping Order in Anaphase [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2015
The critical components of chromosome segregation machinery are well established, but how they orchestrate the relative order of events during mitosis remains unclear. Kamenz et al. (2015) now report in Molecular Cell quantitative data suggesting competing networks and adaptive thresholds in the control of mitotic exit by the anaphase-promoting complex.
