CENP-F-dependent DRP1 function regulates APC/C activity during oocyte meiosis I
Spindle assembly checkpoint controls anaphase onset and guarantees appropriate chromosome segregation. Here, the authors report that dynamin-related protein 1 is recruited to kinetochores by CENP-F to regulate metaphase-to-anaphase transition by ...

Meiotic nuclear divisions in budding yeast require PP2ACdc55-mediated antagonism of Net1 phosphorylation by Cdk [PDF]
During meiosis, one round of deoxyribonucleic acid replication is followed by two rounds of nuclear division. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, activation of the Cdc14 early anaphase release (FEAR) network is required for exit from meiosis I but does not lead

Keeping Order in Anaphase [PDF]
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.

Early onset of APC/C activity renders SAC inefficient in mouse embryos
Control mechanisms of spindle assembly and chromosome segregation are vital for preventing aneuploidy during cell division. The mammalian germ cells and embryos are prone to chromosome segregation errors, and the resulting aneuploidy is a major cause of ...

Anaphase Promoting Complex or Cyclosome? [PDF]
The anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) was initially described as a multi-subunit protein complex that ubiquitinates anaphase inhibitors thus targeting them for destruction by proteasomes to initiate loss of sister chromatid cohesion. However, recent studies have identified important new functions of the APC/C.

The Plant Anaphase-Promoting Complex/Cyclosome
The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) represents a large multisubunit E3-ubiquitin ligase complex that controls the unidirectional progression through the cell cycle by the ubiquitination of specific target proteins, marking them for proteasomal destruction.

Spatiotemporal regulation of MELK during mitosis
Maternal Embryonic Leucine Zipper Kinase (MELK) has been studied intensively in recent years due to its overexpression in multiple cancers. However, the cell biology of MELK remains less characterized despite its well-documented association with mitosis.

Nur1 dephosphorylation confers positive feedback to mitotic exit phosphatase activation in budding yeast. [PDF]
Substrate dephosphorylation by the cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk)-opposing phosphatase, Cdc14, is vital for many events during budding yeast mitotic exit.

Prime movers : mechanochemistry of mitotic kinesins [PDF]
Mitotic spindles are self-organizing protein machines that harness teams of multiple force generators to drive chromosome segregation. Kinesins are key members of these force-generating teams.
