Early onset of APC/C activity renders SAC inefficient in mouse embryos

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
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 ...

Bloom's syndrome and PICH helicases cooperate with topoisomerase IIα in centromere disjunction before anaphase.

open access: yesPLoS 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

open access: yesNature 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 ...

Novel regulation of mitotic exit by the Cdc42 effectors Gic1 and Gic2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Copyright @ The Rockefeller University PressThe guanine nucleotide exchange factor Cdc24, the GTPase Cdc42, and the Cdc42 effectors Cla4 and Ste20, two p21-activated kinases, form a signal transduction cascade that promotes mitotic exit in yeast.

The dynamics of replication licensing in live Caenorhabditis elegans embryos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Accurate DNA replication requires proper regulation of replication licensing, which entails loading MCM-2-7 onto replication origins. In this paper, we provide the first comprehensive view of replication licensing in vivo, using video microscopy of ...

Nur1 dephosphorylation confers positive feedback to mitotic exit phosphatase activation in budding yeast. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2015
Substrate dephosphorylation by the cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk)-opposing phosphatase, Cdc14, is vital for many events during budding yeast mitotic exit.

Chromosome Segregation Is Biased by Kinetochore Size [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Chromosome missegregation during mitosis or meiosis is a hallmark of cancer and the main cause of prenatal death in humans. The gain or loss of specific chromosomes is thought to be random, with cell viability being essentially determined by selection ...

Spatiotemporal regulation of MELK during mitosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
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.

HIM-10 is required for kinetochore structure and function on Caenorhabditis elegans holocentric chromosomes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Macromolecular structures called kinetochores attach and move chromosomes within the spindle during chromosome segregation. Using electron microscopy, we identified a structure on the holocentric mitotic and meiotic chromosomes of Caenorhabditis elegans ...

TOPBP1 recruits TOP2A to ultra-fine anaphase bridges to aid in their resolution

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
During mitosis, sister chromatids must be faithfully segregated to ensure that daughter cells receive one copy of each chromosome. However, following replication they often remain entangled.
