BUB-1 promotes amphitelic chromosome biorientation via multiple activities at the kinetochore
Accurate chromosome segregation relies on bioriented amphitelic attachments of chromosomes to microtubules of the mitotic spindle, in which sister chromatids are connected to opposite spindle poles.

The underlying etiologies of genetic congenital microcephaly are complex and multifactorial. Recently, with the exponential growth in the identification and characterization of novel genetic causes of congenital microcephaly, there has been a ...

Objective The transition from asymptomatic anti‐nuclear antibody (ANA) positivity to systemic autoimmune rheumatic disease (SARD) is associated with increased production of pro‐inflamamtory factors such as TNF‐α. Here we investigate whether the relative absence of inflammation in asymptomatic ANA+ individuals (ANA+NS) results from a lack of circulating

Astrin-SKAP complex reconstitution reveals its kinetochore interaction with microtubule-bound Ndc80
Chromosome segregation requires robust interactions between the macromolecular kinetochore structure and dynamic microtubule polymers. A key outstanding question is how kinetochore-microtubule attachments are modulated to ensure that bi-oriented ...

A comparison of the distribution of actin and tubulin in the mammalian mitotic spindle as seen by indirect immunofluorescence [PDF]
Rabbit antibodies against actin and tubulin were used in an indirect immunofluorescence study of the structure of the mitotic spindle of PtK1 cells after lysis under conditions that preserve anaphase chromosome movement. During early prophase there is no

B cells and systemic sclerosis interstitial lung disease
Interstitial lung disease is an important complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc‐ILD) with high mortality and morbidity. Recent clinical studies in SSc‐ILD have led to FDA‐approved therapies in SSc‐ILD. Importantly, evidence from these studies has been extrapolated to guide management of interstitial lung diseases of other systemic autoimmune ...

Molecular analysis of core kinetochore composition and assembly in Drosophila melanogaster.
BackgroundKinetochores are large multiprotein complexes indispensable for proper chromosome segregation. Although Drosophila is a classical model organism for studies of chromosome segregation, little is known about the organization of its kinetochores ...

Abstract Background Phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (p‐STAT3) has emerged as a critical modulator of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression. However, its role in three‐dimensional (3D) chromatin conformation and the expression of genes linked to HCC aggressiveness remains largely unexplored.

The PP2A‐B56 Binding Site LxxIxE Contributes to Asp‐Mediated Spindle Pole Stability
ABSTRACT The organization of microtubules into a mitotic spindle is critical for animal cell proliferation and involves the cooperation of hundreds of proteins whose molecular roles and regulation are not fully understood. The protein product of the Drosophila gene abnormal spindle, Asp, is a microtubule‐associated protein required for correct mitotic ...
