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.

A Regulatory Switch Alters Chromosome Motions at the Metaphase-to-Anaphase Transition
Cell Reports, 2016 To achieve chromosome segregation during mitosis, sister chromatids must undergo a dramatic change in their behavior to switch from balanced oscillations at the metaphase plate to directed poleward motion during anaphase.

LET-99 functions in the astral furrowing pathway, where it is required for myosin enrichment in the contractile ring. [PDF]
, 2017 The anaphase spindle determines the position of the cytokinesis furrow, such that the contractile ring assembles in an equatorial zone between the two spindle poles.

Cell Reports, 2015 Condensin is a conserved chromosomal complex necessary to promote mitotic chromosome condensation and sister chromatid resolution during anaphase. Here, we report that yeast condensin binds to replicated centromere regions.

Bub1-mediated adaptation of the spindle checkpoint. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2011 During cell division, the spindle checkpoint ensures accurate chromosome segregation by monitoring the kinetochore-microtubule interaction and delaying the onset of anaphase until each pair of sister chromosomes is properly attached to microtubules.

Cell, 2000 Although all the pieces of the puzzle may seem to be in place, there are still several key processes that have been widely posited but remain experimentally unverified. What attracts Mad2 to the kinetochore and what causes its release? Is it Mad1, as has been hypothesized from its apparent loss (along with Mad2) from the kinetochore after microtubule ...

PLoS ONE, 2012 Centromeres are specialized chromosome domains that control chromosome segregation during mitosis, but little is known about the mechanisms underlying the maintenance of their integrity.

CENP-F-dependent DRP1 function regulates APC/C activity during oocyte meiosis I
Nature Communications, 2022 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 ...

Securin Is Not Required for Chromosomal Stability in Human Cells [PDF]
, 2005 Abnormalities of chromosome number are frequently observed in cancers. The mechanisms regulating chromosome segregation in human cells are therefore of great interest.

Early onset of APC/C activity renders SAC inefficient in mouse embryos
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental BiologyControl 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 ...
