Male meiotic spindle features that efficiently segregate paired and lagging chromosomes
eLife, 2020 Chromosome segregation during male meiosis is tailored to rapidly generate multitudes of sperm. Little is known about mechanisms that efficiently partition chromosomes to produce sperm.

Pathogenic mutations in the chromokinesin KIF22 disrupt anaphase chromosome segregation
eLife, 2022 The chromokinesin KIF22 generates forces that contribute to mitotic chromosome congression and alignment. Mutations in the α2 helix of the motor domain of KIF22 have been identified in patients with abnormal skeletal development, and we report the ...

Some assembly required: Redefining the mitotic checkpoint
Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2017 The spindle assembly checkpoint (also known as the spindle or mitotic checkpoint) is a surveillance system that ensures fidelity of chromosome segregation.

Cdk1 phosphorylation of Esp1/Separase functions with PP2A and Slk19 to regulate pericentric Cohesin and anaphase onset. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2018 Anaphase onset is an irreversible cell cycle transition that is triggered by the activation of the protease Separase. Separase cleaves the Mcd1 (also known as Scc1) subunit of Cohesin, a complex of proteins that physically links sister chromatids ...

Detection of Ultrafine Anaphase Bridges [PDF]
, 2017 Ultrafine anaphase bridges (UFBs) are thin DNA threads linking the separating sister chromatids in the anaphase of mitosis. UFBs are thought to form when topological DNA entanglements between two chromatids are not resolved prior to anaphase onset.

Degradation of the kinesin Kip1p at anaphase onset is mediated by the anaphase-promoting complex and Cdc20p [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001 Kip1p of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a bipolar kinesin in the conserved bimC kinesin subfamily that mediates mitotic spindle–pole separation. Here, we show that Kip1p is regulated immediately after anaphase initiation by its rapid degradation.

Semiautomatic quantification of 3D Histone H3 phosphorylation signals during cell division in Arabidopsis root meristems. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Posttranslational modification of histones during the cell cycle is a major process controlling many aspects of cell division. Among the variety of histone modifications, mitotic phosphorylation of histone H3 at serine 10 (H3S10ph) plays a crucial role, particularly in proper chromosome segregation.

Anaphase specific auto‐cleavage of separase [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 2002 Sister‐chromatid separation is triggered by a specific proteolytic cleavage of chromosomal cohesins catalyzed by the endopeptidase separase. Prior to anaphase, separase is inhibited independently by affinity binding to securin and by specific inhibitory phosphorylation.
